I look at the stars
And where I once saw your face
I see shapeless lights
I remember how I've loved you
How I've screamed for you
For years on end
I knew you couldn't hear me
But there was a gem of hope
Nestled safely in my heart
I protected it
Nurtured it
And suddenly
My gem
My precious light
Shatters
At the realization I'm being childish
Whenever I look at you
I see light
Warmth
Your voice chased away my fears
The gem is gone
But a piece has pierced my heart
And I can't leave
Stars, hear my cry
Send me a prince
To rescue me from a child's dream
That I cannot escape
