Starlight

I sit up and yet look down,
I watch with care for
those that wear
sadness like a mantle
draped around
their shoulders.

Watching whilst the
teardrops fall,
unable to caress or
hold them tight
I watch over them
in the stillness
of the night.

I hold each sorrow
to my breast,
yet when the first
dawn’s rays appear
its then I slowly disappear.

I hold their sorrow deep in side
as I hide in the sunlight
yet once again the dark descends
and I am there for my dear friends.

So never fear, be sad or blue
this shining star will watch over you,
I'll hold your heart so tenderly
because you mean the world to me.

Though nebula's may come and go
this little star speaks true
I love you then, I love you now
until my fire is vanquished
I will hold your troubled soul
help you heal, and watch you grow,
until another dawn arrives
and I will go, but not too far
so when you wish upon this star
your heartache and sorrow will depart
and once more you'll have a happy heart
