I look up to the stars
To find solace in my dreams
I’ve dreamed of you
Dreamed of you for years
I couldn’t wait to meet you
I couldn’t wait to see what you looked like
To see if you had my hair
My eyes
My laugh
My smile
Would you have been tall like me?
Would you have been shy?
Or a social butterfly?
I couldn’t wait to hear you say “mama”
Your first day of school
And your last day of school
What would you have become?
I couldn’t wait to see what you loved
Would you have found comfort in the night sky like I do?
Since I cannot meet you in this lifetime
I will look to the stars to find comfort
And I will hold you in my dreams
Until we can meet in the stars
