I reached up and grabbed the brightest star,
I could not resist because there was something about its charm--
that reminded me of you.

I placed it in my pocket and it kept me warm,
and when the sky got dark, it brought light to the storm--
reminding me of you.

I set it on my nightstand when it was time to sleep,
closed my eyes, feeling safe, because it was watching over me--
which reminds me of you.

You.

The one who was always there
when I was alone and feeling scared.
Your arms around me,
a smile on your face,
which told me I always held a place
in your heart and soul.

I reached up and grabbed the brightest star,
thinking if I brought it to you, traveling so far,
you'd be impressed and come back with me.

Because without you,
I'm like the night without the moon.
No stars shine and dance,
not even the wind passes by, not even by chance.

So take this star
I've made my wish--
come back to me,
and I promise

to only make
silly mistakes.
