Firefly

Firefly

I screamed your name up to the sky
and at the stars 
but you didn't reply
I cried me a river
that flowed down stream
I watched every mountain 
crumble to sea 
I watched the Raven fly on high 
looking down,
looking he was, looking down at me
where are you, my beloved darling?
no longer with me
are you sitting on a rainbow?
or are you napping on a cloud?
please, please, I just want to see
I screamed your name up to the sky
and at the stars 
but you didn't reply…
 
and I know you never will.
