The Moon's Lover Poem by Judea Mae Espanola

Lover:

I reached for the moon, she's so high above

So i sang her a song to carry my love.

But how can she hear, when there's plenty of stars,

Who surround her and who don't have all my scars?



I wanted her hand to be mine forever,

To stay with me here, to leave this world never

I'll give her the sun, if she wanted to,

cause for her there's nothing that I wouldn't do..



My moon, oh my moon, how lovely you are,

You're the most beautiful thing i have met by far;

Our distance is great, but no burden for me,

You know my heart's with you, wherever you may be..



Moon:

My lover, my love, I am sad, you see,

You know I love you too, but you can't be with me;

I have to shine when darkness comes to stay

and guard the nighttime silence till night turns to day.



Lover, my heart, it is torn in two,

For there's none that I would ever rather do,

Than leave heaven and just plain run away with you,

I'd give it all up, you know that is true..



My lover, my love, you have my whole heart,

the oceans may fade, but our souls will never part..

Keep it with you, till i find a way,

To be by your side forever and a day..
