You are the moon that is moored in the sky And the moonshine that shimmers against Atlantis' cloak So vivid, yet so pale And I begin to wonder if you're alright Up there, all alone atop the world. Is it better to be carefully propped on a celestial pedestal for all men to indulge, Or to be chaotically plunged Into a sea of solitude and peace? You are much wiser and older, my dear; Is it true that Beauty lies In the eye Of the beholder?

Beauty Lies
You are the moon that is moored in the sky And the moonshine that shimmers against Atlantis' cloak So vivid, yet so pale And I begin to wonder if you're alright Up there, all alone atop the world. Is it better to be carefully propped on a celestial pedestal for all men to indulge, Or to be chaotically plunged Into a sea of solitude and peace? You are much wiser and older, my dear; Is it true that Beauty lies In the eye Of the beholder?
I have been told that beauty cannot be trusted...but I've yet to even find it in this world.
