ACROSS THE OCEANS

Somewhere across these oceans
of loneliness and solitude
reside the happiness and mirth
in worlds where I'm with you.
But those worlds are gone-
both Future and Past.
That future's no more
and that past didn't last.
Yet I'll still travel there
carried by my memories
of ex-future and the ex-past;
those worlds with you with me.
Yet here I am now
and here you are not
And I've only memories
since you I have lost.

It's not exactly my best work, but it's something. And I'm glad that I'm still able to produce something.
