FOR ABSENT FRIENDS…

(Dedicated to the memory of those who suffered and died in the Bhopal disaster Dec. 3, 1984…and those still suffering.)

Om namo, namah shivaya…


there are times when it may feel so hopeless
Just what can one person do?

we can carry the weight of the helpless 
and our absent friends
 

Om namo, namah shivaya…


Though mem’ries may fade in the darkness
And the light in our hearts may dim
But nothing can truly part us
from absent friends

Om namo, namah shivaya…


there are times when it all seems so pointless
Just what can one person do?

we can bring some hope back to the faithless 
and our absent friends
