You

You

You rose to elation

Carried by glorious wing

Free in your flight

To discover endless skies

To commune with the stars

One or another

You had every sun

But in your flight

You traveled towards mine

My dim constellation

Not brighter than those

Those nearer to you

But somehow enticing

So further you flew

Before you realized

How close you were

The fiery star

Incinerating and bright

Singed your wings

The consequence

Of getting too close

You fell into darkness

Your freedom to soar

Now forever lost

You cried out for mercy

To reclaim your wings

But as you fell

Out of that darkness

returned that bright star

It caught you

It saved you

Holding you tight

The star who took

Your glorious wings

Will promise to lift you

For eternity
