An Eternal Star Beside the Moon
In the night sky I admire the moon,
and the moon's ever starry friend;
they travel together and are attune,
above in the dark they suspend;
but I will become that star one day soon.
Oh, have found out that this is not a star,
that it is the planet Venus;
so, on my death she will go in a jar,
this will take a plan genius;
and will be hard to do from so afar.
Will appeal to the landlord of the sky,
and with respect will show my need;
for that perfect spot with a tear and sigh,
oh, he offered me an eternal deed;
that will commence the day I die.
When poets seek above I will glimmer,
and shine there beside the moon bright;
a forever, ever glow and glitter,
and my star will whisper at night;
yes, I will always be the star bigger.
"I love you to the moon and back,
my name is Dreamer, find me on nights black."
