"To meet nevermore. Tears of sorrow overflow deep within my heart. What good this potion of life? All is but dust in the wind.

We are never going to see each other again, and it saddens me deeply. These were good times we had, but they are forever gone.

The realization that we're never going to meet again, is the most heartbreaking thing for me..and the pain this causes to my heart cannot be expressed. What good is this life to me now?.. all life without your presence is meaningless like dust blowing away in the wind.

it's from an ancient japanese poem in "The tale of the bamboo cuter" Princess Kaguya must return to the moon....but it deeply saddens her because it means that she must leave the mortal parents whom have raised her since infancy. she wishes deeply that she could stay with them...so she gives them a potion of immortality. But her mortal father casts it away, and speaks that poem. He's saying that...with her gone...without their beloved daughter, their life has no more meaning...why take the potion and live forever when she cannot return...when she cannot be them.

I think it is pertaining to death and the purpose of life. If everything is like dust in the wind and no traces of it is left, what purpose is there to life?

we will never meet again
tears are in their heart-they are very sad to be losing the person they are talking to
what good is their life
the outlook for the future is misty and hopeless
they are very sad about losing someone and feel their life is now hopeless.

Is this from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet? It sounds like it. It means that there is no chance for this speaker to meet again with whoever they're talking about. They're very sad and they want to be with their lover even in death

Sounds like a separation poems to me. Meaning life is worthless if you are not around.

sounds like there was a recent parting with someone. this person will never be able to see that person again, and he/she loved her/him. their saying - what good is love if you can lose it. it leaves nothing but sorrow

It means when you are separated forever from your beloved, life would be meaningless and dull.
