The Stars Are Not Too Far



Close by at my right hand
Speak to the ear that still can hear
And we will understand
Ourselves until the stars appear

Through the deep velvet blue
Come diamonds from not too far
Since this is where they are

To keep an eye on us if you
Come from afar to see
Some new reality come true
If you come to see me

If you ask I may show you my
Old falling star tattoo

I never won my wings but I
Could see forever through
The velvet blue as I recall
So I knew what to do

The stars are not too far out here
As close as they can be
Without falling out of the sky

But they do sometimes and
If they do may you be close by
To see since after all
This is where they go when they fall

Where I fell like a star
If you can see farsightedly
The stars are not too far

To reach out to and wonder why
But understand them too
