For the the distant princess

Nevermore we will be together
the world split us for that matter
Maybe at night, when we stand at the windowpane,
but the stars we see are not the same

Your country so farway from mine,
travelling even all day when I would try
driven by the urge of time,
I would only reach you when I die.

But if it is true that dreams can travel light
and carry the desire just as far
up to the most distant star,
then I will be there, I will be there every night.
