A shining crystal hangs in my window Trying to capture silent light and make a rainbow But it's facing the North Star not the rising or dying sun And cannot move now, it's frozen.
It sings to me of dreams I dare not remember Of love and jewels and things I cannot touch Of a life that will never be mine, never could be Because like the jewel I face the wrong direction.
It's silver faces glint of miracles and wishes Of starlit nights and star crossed lovers true But it's also inside my heart and is breaking As the clutching, scratching ice takes it and bites.
My heart is breaking with those crystal shards A small jewel never given flight in the light To scream in frozen pain and agony To never capture the silent light....
So under moonlight, stars and black canvas In painted dreams of knights, roses and jewels A silhouette stands waiting to fly forever And sheds a tear as fragile as my heart.
