The moon came down to see me, as I sat beside the lake,
I was distraught, struggling to soothe a lifetime of heartache,
She touched my shoulder, smiled at me, and asked me to explain,
Her reflection was so beautiful, that I simply could not refrain,
She caressed my cheek, reassuring me, that she’ll take the pain away,
And keep it deep within her glow, so that I would feel ok,
I shared my secret heartaches, and after hearing what I had to say,
She reassured me once again, that it was normal to feel this way,
‘We’ve all lost special people, whom we loved, and who loved us,
But it’s time to let them go’ she said, ‘in moonlight you can trust’.
She kissed my cheek, bid me farewell, and rose into the sky,
And I found myself alone again, but without the pain inside.
When I’m sad I look up to the sky, and see the moon, the queen of night,
And remember that she has my loved ones, safely stored within her light.
