A Strange Love Story

0 This is our strange story 02br
00No beginning, no end 02br
00This never ending journey 02br
00Of my life 02br
00Where does it go from here 02br
00I never understood yesterday 02br
00Nor did you today. 02br
00With the twilight of compassion 02br
00The smoke from loving heart 02br
00Has awakened too 02br
00Is that the smoke 02br
00From the lamp 02br
00Or is my heart burning? 02br
00I dream a dream 02br
00That I have woken up 02br
00From all cherished dreams. 02br
00Walking down the aisle 02br
00With someone you love 02br
00You will step into 02br
00A new world today. 02br
00 But whenever the sun sets 02br
00I will remember you 02br
00And our faded love too. 02br
00May the showers of blessings 02br
00be bestowed on you. 02br
00As you are The jewel 02br
00Of someone’s heart now 02br
00And mine is left a broken glass. 02br
00You are now so close to someone 02br
00That you have walked away 02br
00From everyone else 02br
00From me and my love too. 0-

0 Actually this is not a word to word translation as that didn't seem proper.What you see is my version of it with the meaning intact. But for your ready reference, I'll post that too and then maybe you can help me better. Thanks Mr.P. 02br
02br
00And the original is of the form, abcb,defe... I didn't get that though.. 02br
02br
00This is a peculiar story

0 Very much so! Do you mind if I add a little punctuation, and make a couple of small changes, to bring out the meaning? e.g. 02br
02hr
02br
02br
00This is a peculiar story. 02br
00Where does it start and where does it end? 02br
00What kind of destinations are these? 02br
00He could not understand, and neither could I.
