Painted through the ether
Like a spray of stars
****** if I'm not a believer
Someday I'll be where you are
In the dark peace of space
Floating so slowly
Shining beauty on the face
Of I, so lowly
Burning yourself to light the world
No one else knows what you are
But I'll pull you down to earth
My beautiful shooting star
Elegant skin
Like the silent moon
Slipping through my hands
For dawn is coming soon
You may be so far away
Peeking from the twilight
But for me gravity holds no sway
I will take my flight tonight
Dive into the black unknown
I don't need the light of day
All I need is you alone
And I will always find my way
