As I walked along; on my father’s vast land,
I heard your cry; a cry for strength, a cry for help,
The tremble in your voice; the silent tears that streaked your tender heart,
My heart cried; my legs shook,
I had to stay; to lend a hand, to guide you through,
For are you not a beautiful child; Born of my father,
Learning as you walk; on his heavenly land,
Your gentle loving Soul; asking for ever so little,
I simply could not pass by; I could not let you down,
Were your tears not shed; for the shallowness of others who simply let you down,
My own needs; my plans, my dreams,
They would have to wait; shelved or even forever put off,
I had to ask, that my father’s strength be granted; to my dearest friend in need.
The glorious hours we spent; the beautiful things we did,
Each moment of bliss; clearly engraved on a memory beyond time,
The simplicity of our bond; the richness of its quality,
Riches we did not need; to decorate our journey,
The beautiful quality of your being; your gentle and tender loving nature,
Your simple and open honesty; the games we played with childish innocence,
The warmness of your smile; simply flooding my heart with joy,
Reminding me of emotions; I had known in the years gone by,
The self-control I needed; as I watched and nurtured your growth,
In the discovery of truth; the search for your-self,
Feeling you tremble; as you learned the power of trust,
Watching you blossom; like a beautiful rose,
As you learned of a relationship; a bond so complete and true,
The light in your eyes; the quickening of your heart,
As you experienced the wonder of a love; unconditional and true,
These my dear sweet friend; I Could not deny you.
Blue skies lay ahead; what would life be?
Tenderly I ride; wild winds into the unknown,
I still hear thy call; in the still of the night,
I see your warm smile; on the mystical stairway,
I feel your hurt; as I look into your fragile heart,
Watching you live; all you have learnt,
Though I am not there; your life I still share,
As I sit beside thee a silent spectator; watching you dance your dance of life,
My dear sweet friend forever I shall be; right by your side when you need me to be,
A true friend indeed; is a friend when in need.
