Dream and Reality. [Poem]

You are going to move forward from here.

I cannot go with you.

You climb one step of the stairs, and
place your foot on another.

I looked up at you.

You turned around, and
smiled at me.

You gently and softly embraced me,
who could only see you off.

I am wrapped in warm light.
As if being purified.

You gently stroked my tears and cheek,
and slowly moved away from me.

We will never cross paths again.
You walk on without looking back.

Though it is sad, I, who was seeing you off,
was wearing a gentle smile.
