I wonder
I wonder
If I’ll ever become a star,
Like my grandma used to say
“When you die, my sweet child
Your body turns
Into pixie dust
And your soul into a star.”
I wonder
If my soul
Will ever see the light
Or walk on heaven’s path?
Shiny golden yellow
Surrounded by clouds
And sparks
I wonder
If I walk on the rainbow,
Will I ever see the gold?
That they often talk about
The shiny, sparkling pot!
I wonder,
If I’ll see my mother again
In heaven
On the rainbow
Or when I become a star!
To feel like home
With her warm embrace,
After years of being apart.
–
One day
I’ll just be with you.
One day in the woods far away,
One day under the sun, by the bay.
One day, I’ll buy you flowers,
The other day, under grey sky with heavy showers!
One day I’ll kiss you with delight,
And until we grow old, I shall hold you tight.
