Wishing You Near

                                       by Nick Alcantara © 2001

                    I have come

                    To realize

                    That time is so dear

                    When you are no

                    Longer here

                    I cling to memories,

                    Sweet memories

                    That bring you near

                    If only

                    I could touch you again

                    Without bringing back the pain

                    Feeling your presence

                    That you are not really

                    Very far away

                    That would us bring back

                    The aura and magic

                    Of being again

                    Together

                    I know you are

                     Just a whisper away
