Distant upon the sky's horizon
you blaze solo, no companion
stars to huddle with against
the ethereal vastness
of seclusion. Like a lighthouse
you bravely sparkle life-saving
energy...though the heavens
be darkened, still you glisten.
I've pondered the meaning
often of your steadfast loyality
and now, at last, I realize...
you are the birthplace of my soul.
Through suffering and desperate
pangs of self-doubt I've come
to understand why my heart
refuses to release its faith.
Your heavenly habitat patiently
awaits; when my last breath
is drawn eternity's passageway
will beckon, through your ever light.
Shine on, sweet destiny...shine on.
