Light My Way

Lifting my eyes,
Lifting my chin,
Looking at the darkness,
Closing in.

A flicker,
A flutter,
A star goes out.

A twinkle,
A shine,
My lantern goes out.

Where are the days,
The days of past,
In which you were there,
To light my way.

Scared of the dark,
Scared of the shadows,
I need you back,
To light my way.

No one can replace,
My lantern my star,
Come back to me,
Stop wondering far.

Lifting my eyes,
Lifting my chin,
Missing you;
Imagining.
