Immaculate
by

A brighter sky, a sunlit morn, the sparkle of the day
A pristine set, immaculate how night will turn away
Into its only time to rest, for darkness does not sleep
Struggling to stay on top of the hours I try to keep
Elapsing in this evening with no worries of the past
Escaping from the sunshine and the warmth that will not last
Only but a second to reclaim my rightful fame
To be lost amongst the garden where I've buried all my shame
In the night-time there are many moments come to be no more
Daytime brings the promise that you'll see the light before
We get to where we're going and come to see the truth
All those years are wasted, gone just like the tears of youth
I track the stars all morning, imagine dreams are like their glow
Glimmering through night and shine so we can surely know
A heart that burns with light does not lessen in the sun
Quietly shining anyway, until the day is done
After, I am thankful that another night went well
Forgotten, like the other times I thought that I could tell
The night would be continued for the star that might have shone
Can shine again, at-least for now, until the break of dawn
