I’m drinking the farewell cup and stopping time.
Blinks upon the river, opened arms tonight.
find me like a mirage granted form,
scattered visions converged to a point in the water,
calling overboard:
“return to me”
I’m drinking the farewell cup and bringing me,
closer to the boundary that’s been kept from me,
all this time.
Like a charm slipped from chain,
I’d fall from those links,
in an instant prepared to be anything now,
if you’d return to me.
I’m drinking the farewell cup finally,
the voice inside a lifetime leaked out faithfully:
“Take me”.
Here, in the presence of it all,
lying under your five-colored cloud,
would you climb your way back down
and take me?
Hold me,
return to me.
