When is later?

by Raphael Victor Ezeano

And what about then? When I am not with you

Will you be still in your sadness

For how long will you let tears flow

Will your waters subside?

What sun will dry the well

When you are no longer with me?

What memories will move me

From this solitary air that has settled around me?

I do not want to disturb it’s peace

We won’t always be here, in this place

And we will forget who we are

But with this moment create more

So today,

Let us live forever

And you, it is because of today that I will always be with you

because of who you are that you will be with me

Nights turn into day

And the east wind becomes the west wind

But it is your words that remain forever
