This Child

Whisper to me gently
in the secret of a star
Tell me of your worries
and of your life so far.

Daydreamer dream with me
and write it down later
Love the night and twilight
when dreams are most vivid

Can I know your heart
dear one would you tell me so?
Would you tell me all your  love
if I asked you to?

O lovely child from whence did you come?
a lonely babe on a grassy knoll.
I found you there and held you close
but I never knew you all the better.

Precious lamb that I did find
will you love me for all time?
Precious lamb that I call mine
will you love me for all time?

Love of my Soul

Think of the stars dear one
O how they shine for you tonight

Look beyond the fog
Look beyond the dark
And you will See

O my love, how they shine for you
I asked them to
Just for you

This love of mine is imperishable
Do not ever fear it wasted
It will remain always

The stars hold your future in their midst
Call to them, my darling
Cry out and they will answer you swiftly

Fate is cruel and kind
She is fair and unjust
She is frail and wary

Never fail to believe in the power She holds for you
Ask the stars to reveal Her path

Lover of the night
Cradle me in your heart forever
As I cradle you in my arms now

O how I love you, my loveliest pet
How I wish to watch your journey unfold

I cannot be there to hold your hand through the dark
So let the stars be your guide
And let Fate show you Her way

O love of my soul, do not fret
Do not worry, or jest at others pain
Be kind and let love pour forth from the fountains of your heart
And do forgive me for my transgressions
All I am guilty of is loving you with my whole.
O love of my soul

I've not changed, not really.
You've not changed, not at all.
And yet, we're both so different now.

I'm discovering a better life.
This joy in me is so great that I want it to spill out to you too.
It's not up to me whether you choose to receive it or not.

I've been called out to a greater cause than my own.
This new glory is my life wholly and completely.
But it doesn't mean you can't still be in my life too.

Nay the reason is greater now than if ever before.
I want you, but I no longer need you.
For I have found the only One I need and I am fulfilled.

I wish I could make you see as well.
But it is not time for you.
I hope it will be soon.

This journey before me will be lonely if I dwell in myself and others.
But if I keep my sights on Life Everlasting, I will never have a greater joy.
You don't understand, but that's ok because I'm not forcing you to.

I want you to see Love through me.
Not hypocrisy, or rules, or judgments.
Just Light and Love in a world lacking them.
