So many times I've watched my time go by, Even as I know it isn't mine. Visiting's the best that we can do. Eventually, all lovers say goodbye. Now my children celebrate my day, Though I myself am sometimes far away. Years pass. The train goes on. Their faces shine. For me the only thing that's mine is love. I feel its god-like grip, more true than true. Very little else the heart can move. Emptiness passes, but deep-felt love abides.
