Poetry is to words what song is to sound

Mighty midnight star
you distinguish yourself
amongst millions of stars,
shine the brightest of them all
let your brightness
shine upon my face,
you mighty midnight star
let your brightness
bring happiness to my heart,
let your brightness
bring freedom to my soul,
mighty midnight star
I wish you could shine forever
for I will forever look upon you.
