We flow through endless paths in this world, in this life. Do the stars look at us, as we look at them? Can we ever shine, as they do? Has someone ever wished upon us? I cannot tell, I cannot know. I’m trapped in my blue pearl, and I cannot go and visit them, and know them, and kiss them. But I can love them. I can love their glow, their silent serenity, their quiet light in the blackest night. Once we made seven idols, all in shame, praying and dying we wished to see her.
Have you come to me? Have you come to bring the sword upon my heart? Well, I’m sorry but my time is yet to come. I still have a few more glances at you, before I shall be taken. Rest your head now, don’t ask me why. I just have to stay, I cannot go to the other world yet. There is so much to see, so much to love. I can’t go with you, little girl. Wait for me at the creek, build a house of stone and water, shield your eyes from the sun. I shall come when my time comes, once I’ve seen the world, and loved all my love, and all my joys are fulfilled, once mother moon tells me it is time to join her in heavens, I’ll come to you. I’ll try to see her and kiss her lips anew, I’ll try to say I love her. I’ll see the white meadows, and as a wolf, I’ll walk to you. You’ll know I’m coming because of the snow, never will you see so much. The trees will cry as when Siegfried was slain by Hagen’s spear. Yes, little girl. And when I’ll see into your eyes, we will be young again, and we will return to heavens above. But you’ll have to wait for me, little girl. As much as I can love you, there is still too much in this world. I do not wish to go. Wait me by the creek, build a house on night and sky, and shine. Let me know that you look upon us, let me know that I’m looking at you when the sky goes black.
My time will come little girl. We will say goodbye to all those that we loved. It is sad, but don’t you cry. In the end, we are never alone, we will always have the stars. And as long as we can love, the world will be worthy of living it. At least for me. I know your time came earlier that it should, but you can’t ask me to go with you. No, not for a long while. Wait me in the sky, by the creek. One day I’ll return.
