I have never quite been
Just as confused
Than on that quiet and sad afternoon
As I lay on the ground
And watched joy abound
As the sun danced around with the moon
Although it was day
With you, and with her
You’re radiant like the moon
What’s the difference?
Both of you are bright
Quiet, soft, delicate light
And so far away
I am lonely.
I always have been.
Wandering through countless days
and endless nights.
Even the sun
abandons me eventually.
But not the moon.
With it's radiant glow
ah, my darling-
the moon, so full and bright!
shining above, whispering in the wind-
my darling, the moon
tomorrow clouds may cover her-
next week, she'll wane away.
There would be a time in life
When I could give up hope and just
Fly into the moon
I know I'll join her soon
Your pale, sad face
Stained blue with tears
Emulates love that won't thrive here
I've never really gotten to enjoy the moon at its fullest. I am always nowhere to be found, as all of my friends like to sit under the stars.
"Like a diamond in the sk-"
