No Turning Back Poem by kelvin karani

(11/01/10)

From worlds apart
Time ate all distance
Making us meet at heart
In a joyous trance

Solitary we had walked
Fast to destinations unknown
Only to land loved
Besides love germs sown

Time was left to tell
Whether this union
Would die or end well.
Dead is the scion.

Today alone we walk
Each going their way
What happened to talk?
Anguish holds hearts in sway.

Ahead we trek so fast
Forgetting that to go far
Only two can. Must
It grow dim, the star?

The night is so dark
It’s robbed off stars and moon
The wilderness is wildly wide
Yet there is no turning back.
