It Hurts To Watch Him Hurt ,Inpired By Jerrine
Like a shadow without a master
Wisps without air, I have become his ghost.
In his dreams have I been
A cloud of smoke in his eyes.
I see the tear in his heart, the brilliant scars
I fall on his cheeks with his pain
I hug him day and night but he does not know
Just but a soul I can only wander
Still it hurts to watch him hurt.
Ancient voices that cannot be aired
Guardian without wings, I have become his angel
I see when they have made him suffer
Mine are the eyes of his redemption.
In his death have I been, but I have resurrected him
I give him life when he has fallen
I am the keeper of his soul but he does not know
Just like Fravardin I can only wander
Still it hurts to watch him hurt.
I stand before him, he does not see
I whisper to him, he does not hear
I hold him, he does not feel it
I am his loving protector, he does not know
It hurts to watch him hurt.
FRAVARDIN (???????): Persian name derived from the word fravashi, meaning "guardian spirit."
