Rock God

Joanna Garrido



So lithely you moved, owning the stage

Curly dark hair framing heavenly face

Energy flowing from every part 

Tight - your rock voice filling the place

 

In your prime the only rock god of the ages

A giant amongst us, gyrating the floor

Sensual being, your body on show

Leaving us wanting, begging for more

 

Brown eyes to melt a hardened heart

You had us with a soft smile

A slide of the hips, a need you tonight

Captivated our senses, we drooled for a while

 

No one could match you for raw energy

You sang with the band whilst you covered the floor

No one has ever bewitched us like you did

You gave us yourself and we all wanted more

 

The music lives on but you were its life force

It hurt when you died in a moment of pain

Michael we loved you for all that you brought us

We’ll not see your like in this sad world again.
