A cross that’s mine alone

That day I met you On a street corner of falling snow We shared smiles, so young Now lost, never to return I long to see you But I can't reach you Even my tears Turn into bittersweet memories You left me And disappeared somewhere Since then, I lived with you On sun-dappled street corners We spoke of dreams together But our hopes would never reach I can’t see you Can’t find you Even my tears Speak the truth we hide You are now In a place I do not know In a windy port town We stood together that day A kiss upon my shoulder A memento of our love remains I long to see you But I can’t reach you Not even tears Remain in this illusion You speak To the wind, a silent cross A cross that’s mine alone
