You told me I was a Princess
And not to settle for any other name
Any time you were there, you'd insist
Your respect and care was far from a game
I cried one night and wished for you
As soon as possible, you came through
Any hour, no matter how close the day's end
You were willing to be there. Truly a friend.
I remember your words of stars
How we'd catch them, they'd be ours
What the stars are, I now begin to realize
Seen now through new and different eyes
Some shine on my ceiling, some in a box
It was only recently I let them out of their locks
You kept your promise. Each star a glowing, happy memory
Each bright light seems to echo: "Remember me."
Granting their call, to their light I began to stare
Then dared to think you probably still care.
At least enough to turn a smile my way
I hope that care decides to stay.
