Till it be Morrow

© Archie M. Villamor

I was standing alone in that lonely room
With no one to hold and no one to roam
Life seems to be a waste and so meaningless
And thought my life was deprived of its happiness.

Suddenly you went in, on the room where I stay
And then ask me gently, “is this the room of Mr. Leigh?”
I was gazed with your simple and lovable beauty
And your voice seems to be a perfect melody.

Time passed by and we learned to rely
On every questions we learned to reply
You always have been on my side
And in my paths you are always there to guide.

All of a sudden I felt so different
Feeling that I can’t even prevent
I tried to stop this feeling inside
But I just can’t really let it hide.

But when I was going to tell you ’bout my feeling
Why did you tell me that you’ll soon be living
It seems to me that you took away everything
Even the world where we used to live in.

My heart is so heavy and full of weary
Of all the miles that lie between you and me
Yes, we are part and I could scarcely believe
All the pain left over me could hardly be relieved.

All the memories that you left me behind
Things I can’t forget and could hardly find
The withered frame, the ruined mind
The wreck by your passion left behind.

Life now seems to be so slow
Hoping others happiness I could borrow
Our parting is such a bitter sorrow
“Goodbye, goodbye till it be morrow!”.
