shining/simran

i have long seen you standing away, away
dear one
dear one


you look away, away
dear one


to me you are the sun undiscovered
the moon and the stars shine for you
the blackest night is to you an ocean 
that welcomes you into the warmth of its arms


the stardust will fall on your face there..
i can see it glistening in your eyes
heavenward - you shine like the ember
in my heart 


i remember you, dear one


can you feel it?
the light welcomes you into the warmth of its arms
shimmering shining, in the light you never fade
you will always be away, away and so close...
