So Many Years Have Gone By

So many years have gone by since the day
Came for my broken heart to start mending.
Carefully, a kind spirit came lending
A star that reigns high in the Milky Way.

She shines here too, but soon scurries away-
Always to keep the mystery pending.
Far reaching for the time you'll be spending.
Forever here her sacred name shall stay.

Now, continue to search, and search again; 
But, in these lines, she will always remain.

Keep searching for her name; I cannot yield.
You shall find her; keep asking yourself how.
Review the clues you've been given; and now, 
With this ink, our eternal kiss is sealed.
