Can you see the star
The one just above
Where you are
Shining brightly
In the night
I thought you were my guiding light
The way home
The light under which to roam.
You can’t see
That I care
You didn’t dare
To fall
Into me
The lady
Who wished to help
You see the man you wish to be
Not to turn you into something new
Just to help you
See the man
Under the pain, anger, and hurt,
For better or worse
No matter what mirror would show
I know what lies under is a heart of gold
I just wanted to be
A hand to hold
Until we got very old
You turned me away
Told me to stay
That is when you broke my heart
Never to know what might have been
What waited for us
At the end
