Sweet Petals of Life
There are times---
I fall, unwittingly
and ‘cos of this, I want you to be near
…for when my body trembles, give me the courage
…for when my mind is confused, enlighten me
…for when my memory is lost, remind me of me
If ever I fall---
deeper into the abyss of darkness
lift me, with laughter’s of the day
And, if ever I weep again---
wash my sorrow, with hues of morn flowers
and dry my tears, with its sweet petals
Yes, I don’t want to live alone---
so this to you I ask, stay beside me
that I may not fall into the pangs of solitude
