Night and Day You sense impending doom Seeing your worlds collide. Feeling the wrath of hell Coming down on your hide. It’s all in your perception It’s easy enough to change You’ve placed us in the heavens All you have to do is rearrange. Let her be your sun, your center Around which your world revolves. Putting her in her proper place, See how much it solves? I’ll be your moon in orbit Let me be your muse. I’m here to inspire and comfort No need to be confused. Feel the driving force of her fire I know she has many demands. She pushes you to your limits She’ll make you a better man. I’m the night to her day, Come bask in my lunar glow. Bathe in my moonlight, Discover the truths you know. Are you ready to leave the light? Cast darkness upon your home? Relax in my presence— You’ll find the answers on your own. ------------------ It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E.

Terrific, Tara. You have words of wisdom here. You would be a wonderful moon for anyone, I'm sure. |
