My Guiding Star
My Guiding Star
It is eight months to the day since you went away
Leaving me pining and to fate resigning.
Just look back and recall how each other would enthrall
On our week-long vacations to various destinations.
In the lap of nature many a scene we would capture
Landscapes, temples, and sanctuaries writing our commentaries
Why did you leave me behind, don’t you think it was unkind?
It was as if it was yesterday that we met in the subway
And we realized that our love was true - you for me and I for you
Three more years had you smuggled we would have been a golden couple
Now our sweet daughters are my only supporters.
It was God’s Will and we all stood helplessly still
When we saw you fight a losing battle close to midnight.
You are now my Guiding Star and I will join you soon wherever you are.
