In the darkness

the lights dim

be the spotlight

that lives within

In your eyes

your pupil dilates

I know it's hard

but you've got what it takes

It is in your music

the ring to new ears

flying through air

like for the last ten years

In my thankfulness

you draw up a smile

this life that we live in

you make it worthwhile.

I would have never expected it
The sudden loss of the contact
between your feet and the floor
while you were dancing

And you danced beautifully
with a voice like soft horn
that called upon a thousand sailors
not to traps, but to home.

The smile shone so brightly
when the truth was the one
who skillfully climbed up
the corners of your mouth.

They say they see you clearly
in the moon in the sky
I miss you dearly
Be free now, my love. Be free to fly.
