Tomorrow's Light

Twinkle, twinkle,
So sorry to go.
My dear, I must leave,
To a place you'll soon know.

Twinkle, twinkle,
My precious star.
In my heart you're so close,
Yet my arms you're so far.

The glow from your eyes,
The warmth from your smile,
Has changed my life since,
And now stays all the while.

Little did I know,
The once gleam in your eyes,
Knows the truth of reality,
Now is one's own disguise.

Look up above, 
At the world so high.
Where one can imagine,
Is where I now lie.

So do not mourn,
My dear, have no sorrow.
Just keep shining your light, 
And we'll meet one tomorrow.
