Like a Lantern

“When the day is dark as the night,
like a lantern, you would always comfort her fright.

But the day came and you flew in the sky,
Saddened as she was,
you left with no goodbye.

Without your warmth and gentle light,
How could she continue this grim fight?

But then she saw a shining star,
And knew that you would never be far.

The star became her light,
Guiding her through the darkest night.

Like a lantern, it led her the way,
And turned the night into bright day.”
