Brightest Star
I looked for you in the night sky
I looked, but you weren’t there
the sky was dark, completely black
the moon was hiding, silently crying
mourning the absence of her brightest star
I begged her to rise and shine down on me
sobbing she replied, she hadn’t the will
no strength, no desire, to share her light
her warm glowing rays locked inside
she cried to me, that she had no purpose
that she was empty, cold and alone
without you, her brightest star, by her side
and I felt her pain, the sad chill
her desolation in your absence
her inability to go on alone, the futility
tenderly I told her, you must go on
rise high into the night sky, share your light
flood the world with your glow, because of him
for him and all he means to you
let him see your light, your faithful vigil
no matter where he is, he will know
how you struggled without him at your side
how strong your devotion is that you wait
there in your place, knowing he will return
-and she rose! eve smiled…beamed
there she remains, shining so full of love
for you…her brightest star
