hope

by Silencedlamb - Aquarius

There is a star that dims 
everytime a child cries
seeing the sorrow 
they see in her eyes

Telling the world
all the child fears
sending someone
to wipe her tears

So star, oh star
I'm crying now
with my hands held tight
and my head in a bow

Dim your light 
for everyone to see
the sadness
lying deep within me

send someone to help
to send up a prayer
to show me that love
isn't so rare

And maybe next time
i'll be there to rise
to help a child up
and wipe her crying eyes
