from poem to a song...

reborn a star (new song)

i wanna be reincarnated into a star

a bright shining star in the sky

but only if

you are there shining next to me

i only look at the night sky

to talk to you

i was once asked if i look at the stars

i stated

only if you were there

when i see a shooting star
i think of how far i'd have to fall
to no longer be alive
to no longer shine like you
the wish that i make
on that star and that moment in time
is for that star to stop in its tracks
and stop falling.  stop shooting.
keep shining

i imagine you there now

and now i look at the stars

if you were reincarnated into a star

you would shine brighter than the rest

and you would shine so bright

all the other stars would lose their light

the contentment you would feel

in that night sky

shining so bright

brighter than you ever shined in life

put me next to you 

in that night sky

two twin shining stars

shining just as bright

together

we'd find our light

and we'd no longer feel pain

and we'd no longer be lost

from each other

when i see a shooting star
i think of how far i'd have to fall
to no longer be alive
to no longer shine like you
the wish that i make
on that star and that moment in time
is for that star to stop in its tracks
and stop falling.  stop shooting.
keep shining

i wanna be a star

just a bright star

drifting in the galaxy

reincarnated next to you

only you

drifting endlessly

for eternity.
