See You Soon

to Kak N

Which tears
are bloody and bitter
like those shaded in separation?

Which pain
will last or sever
like grieving a beloved one?

Since your departure
there's a hole in my mind
a hole in my heart
things are changed forever

Since your departure
nothing is shining in this city
there's no fun, no beauty
whatever I do,
wherever I go,
something is missing
my heart is cold
the place is empty

Here, in this lonely world,
I keep singing
this farewell song:

"Don't say ‘goodbye,’
just ‘see you soon,’
if not here on earth,
then in Heaven."
