He came to me in a dream,
standing in the land of make believe.
I saw him staring from afar –
the ghost of a love still in my heart.
His footprints impressed into my soul
which were non-erasable.

Loving is short, as what Pablo Neruda had said, but forgetting is so long.

That’s the most wicked thing to do. Disappearing after leaving non-erasable imprints. And still you pay such a nice ode in a lovely poem! Amazing Poet!!
