Beyond a distant star

By RocketFAN

An image from the distant past sits inside a frame

Two happy people smiling and dancing in the rain

I look into the shining eyes of whom I'll never see or hear

The one's who gave me life

And washed away my fear

If only they could see me now

I think they would be proud

The only silver lining on a dark and painful cloud

I never got to know them

For they died when I was one

They fought and sacrificed their lives to save their only son

But, I know someday I'll see them again

When my time has come

And we will be a family

Me, my father, and my mum

Until the day we meet again, they watch me from afar

They keep me safe and happy

From beyond a distant star
