I’LL LIGHT YOU A STAR
Take my hand,
There’s world enough and time,
And never looking back,
Together we’ll climb.
If only you’ll take my hand,
We’ll have so much to give,
There’s nothing we could lack.
Together we’ll live.
Time will change us.
We will learn to right our wrongs,
Leave them far behind.
Give our love where it belongs,
Keep it gentle warm and kind.
Now, take my hand,
No matter where we are,
And when the road grows dark,
I’ll light you a star.

******
You must understand,
That though I’ll probably
Never see her again,
I’ll never forget
The texture of her hand.
And it goes without saying,
That even when it’s beyond all hope,
I’ll always try to reach her.
And as I write upon this envelope,
After all the trial and error of my life,
After all the random walks,
And the hits and the misses,
And the accidents,
And the discoveries,
And the failures,
And the recoveries,
Of my life,
My friend,
She’ll
Still
Be
The
One.
