White Wizard

White Wizard, 

He's going away,

White Wizard,

Can't you make him stay?

All this time you were around,

Silent and Eager, Quiet and Strong.

Took for granted all the moments

Now long gone just memories

Of our unfinished song.

There you were

When need made me cling..

Its a crime, a crying shame,

That fear made me let go

Of what was mine...

First there was Fate,

And then there were Rules,

Strangers both to 

One's that choose.

One sealed my lips,

The other crushed my soul,

Together tormenting, 

Never for a moment apart.

Desperate mind that never knew,

Hell it would be,

To live without you.

Wishful thinking of a foolish heart,

Things would change..

Tonight the stars will shine'

Tomorrow the sun will rise again....

(This was inspired by the song White Demon - The Killers)

You Were There

Eyes that twinkled with the 

glimmering light of far away stars, 

They gazed at me as

though I was their rock star.

Lips that lisped sweet words

in my soul, a chord was struck,

They made mundane words seem

more precious than the preciouss.

Tiny hands that wiped away

the invisible tears I shed,

On my cheeks they felt

like the softest of silks.

The warm body that hugged

sharing all the love it possessed,

The vibe that I sensed 

of the special bond created

The look that you gave reflected

wisdom way beyond your years, 

as though you somehow understood

the pain and ache behind the false smiles.

You gave me something

No one else can ever give,

The warm glow of a million suns

that light up my dark days and nights.

With you around

life is easier to face,

My strength, my sanity, 

my joy, my grace.

 Just remember in

 the days yet to be,

This heart will beat for you

as yours did beat for me.

( Dedicated to my tiny powerhouse of a nephew Sid, 

whose innocence and love helped me through my darkest year )
