The furthest distance in the world

The furthest distance in the world
Ranbindranath Tagore


The furthestt distance in the world
Is not between life and death
But when I stand in front of you
Yet you don't know that
I love you

The furthest distance in the world
Is not when I stand in front of you
Yet you can't see my love
But when undoubtedly knowing the love from both
Yet cannot
Be together

The furthest distance in the world
Is not being apart while being in love
But when plaintly can not resist the yearning
Yet pretending
You have never been in my heart

The furthest distance in the world
Is not
But using one's indifferent heart
To dig an uncrossing river
For the one who loves you
