i’ll bottle you a firefly
that it may provide a beacon
no matter how faint or how slight,
to lead you to some corner
where you will always find
a shoulder to cry on.
if in some uncharted sea
you reach a lighthouse,
bright and strong,
let it guide you
on your darkest nights;
home in to its beacon,
bathe in its light,
dry then your tears,
secure a safe harbor,
rest in the soothing
calm of night.
a thousand smiles
can not undo a single tear,
yet in one lifetime,
you already shed
a thousand tears;
rest then in your harbor,
rest in the soothing
calm of night.
