People meet for just a single day and then never meet again; what an agonizing, doomsday-like separation this is.

This couplet captures the cruel paradox of a fleeting encounter that leaves behind an eternity of heartache. Meeting for just a single day offers the heart a tantalizing taste of closeness, only to tear it away forever, making the absence feel as catastrophic as doomsday. The poet wonders how a brief flash of union could carry the weight of such an endless, apocalyptic sorrow.
