Star Crossed Love

You came, my love when it was night
With beauty from which none can compare
I held you when you needed light
I gave you all I had to share

When darkness came, the demons bid
No road of escape then could you see
Til you found God and all he did
Then demons fled and you were free

We then became friends very fast
We've shared our thoughts and dreams
We talked of present and the past
Now all I think of is you it seems

We're not much alike at all
Though I love you and you love me
I'll give my strength though I am small
If you and I could be a we

Though it's impossible it seems
Each takes a road that is so far
We'll pray and wait for precious dreams
Star crossed lovers without a star
