I want to write a little something for my friend
Something comprehensive rising from all the time we’ve gone and spent
A final singularity of grillings underwent, but questions still remain
With more willingness I look forward to more we ascertain;
I used to think you always knew the way,
And my confidence in you meant potential felt as easy as hopping on the train
but now I know I pointed too and guided just the same
From my point of view I never knew how much anger masked the pain,
Some of your stubbornness has almost gone and driven me insane
And god knows how many times I must have left you waiting in the rain, but I can’t wait to be back at vicarage and laughing all the same.
I believe in you
The roots are deep
There’s love in view
You’re the glue.
Your time has come and you’re coming through
You’re growing stronger still, we’re a team, an ever stronger will
A love no one can take, no one can kill
A glass so full I know it’ll spill
To a colder beat, a biting chill, a rising sun, it gives me chills
The thrills of life; the things I’ve thought of
I see you instil in a son or a daughter.
Her hair flows, it flows like water, at the alter
Your hands won’t falter, carrying her weight up on your shoulders.
Sitting on settees, with cups of tea, with the TV like a magic carpet
As the atlas sky holds up a blue, that dots her eyes with jet streams like uncrossed T’s.
A pupil of her potential to seize her exhaustion like supplicated knees,
On searches for alternatives to unforgotten dreams,
Digging up resilience like Tony’s Time Teams.
I haven’t ran up enough mountains to not be breathless at the peak of your esteem
Belonging to the present can still make you currently mad at its stream
Wear your heart on your sleeve and bare your flaws on your chest and love might just drive you insane at its best
Obsessed with what seemed the easiest test
Sometimes you suffer when you talk to you
Become a hanging mist over a beautiful view
I can be the lighthouse that’s beacon guides you through
I can be the lighthouse that’s beacon guides you through
An important day, a choice to take a better way, another pillar planted come what may.
