Once I held a shining star
within my trembling hand
You had lost your way
freefallen into my land
Luminescent beauty
wrapped around my heart
Your soft light of love
guiding the way in my dark
But you told me soon
you would need to leave
I knew life without you
I could not conceive
But to plead for you to stay
I had no right
Heavy hearted my hand
released you one sad night
Gazed with longing
drank in your beauty one last time
You looked onward to the stars
ready now to climb
Rising high with a smile
to your heaven above
My tears shone as bright
as the star I still love
