Moon child,
Worned out, yet wide eyed,
Breathe in
Breathe out.
Your body is tiny.
Your heart remains untouched.
Your smile breaks me.
I used to be happy, too.
Tell me you're still here,
Somewhere where I can find you.
Tell me you are proud of me.
Tell me you would keep fighting,
Because I need your strength.
Take all the pain away.
Take me to the stars,
Let's play with Peter Pan.
You should remain unmarked.
Yet, you're growing tired.
Have I let you down?
Moon child,
Tell me we are doing okay.
Moon child,
Keep on fighting.
This war is not over.
We shall remain victorious.
We will be marked.
Don't pay attention to others,
You are enough.
You are perfect.
Moon child,
Wild kid with pretty eye lashes
Are you here?
I can't feel you anymore.
If you decide to stay,
So will I
