From where I stand, I feel like you

From where I stand, I feel like you ,
From where I stand, I know it's as tough to be you as it is to be me.
From where I stand, I know that the life confers but more often confiscates
From where I stand, I feel I know better about everything I knew
From where I stand, I feel like you, you stood here once tall and unshaken
You stood here when the winds were brutal gale
You stood here, watching colors go pale
They were trying times but you didn't frail
Through these winds now I must sail
And see how it looked while once here you stood !
Cenotaph of my love I am, and here I stand !
Guarding the place where we met the 'last',
where you stood now I stand
