i was there at the beginning … i’m nobody special … just a witness … i met you before you were
born … you were not much older then than you are now … i was your age then … but you died …
you were one of the first to leave … the whole world grieved … mostly for us … what would
become of us …. with you no longer here … we took solace wherever we could & any way we could
without care or thought for we believed then that there would be no future without you …
worth living …

we were stranded on this island … without you … we lost ourselves inside ourselves …
everyone drowned in tears of sorrow …. that was then … this is now … i ‘m just a witness
called forth to say … you … who illuminates the entire cosmos … you illuminate also our
hearts so with or without you …. we shine … so bright … see us … feel us … we rise … a
standing ovation to you … on this most miraculous of days in the most miraculous of ways we
rise and shine and shine and … shine …

you, who are the source of all power, whose rays illuminate the entire universe, illuminate
also our hearts so that we too can do you work … and so it is … and so it is … so it is …
