We are sowing a vineyard
You and I
Watering it each day
With our warmth and care
Nurturing it with
With affection and love
And this vineyard will grow
And it will flourish
One day when we will part
When you would go your own path
And I will go on my own way
One day when we will finally say
The final goodbye
When I will leave you
And you will leave me
This vineyard of ours
It will engulf us
Surround our beings
The vines will wrap them around us
Strangling and suffocating
With all our warmth
Our care and affection
All the madness
The poison
And chaos
And then finally
The grapes will be picked
And the wine brewed
The wine of our memories
Of unheard melodies and unsung sonnets
Of regrets and sorrows
Of pain and pangs
Of unsaid words and repressed desires
Of sad goodbyes and streams of secret tears
Of unfulfilled wishes and long sighs
And we will pour that wine
In our own places
In our own glasses
In our own times
And we will drink it
We will drink it to our fill
Without clinking our glasses
And seeing the other in the eye
The wine of our vineyard
