My body needs rest,
Awaken by thoughts of dreams,
I'll sleep to dream.

You've decided to be on a cyber hiatus,
And I kept on looking for traces of you,
Because at least in the cyber world,
I feel connected with you.

I've kept my affections in the shadows,
Where they should be,
So I hope my eyes didn't give me away;
I don't want any less than what your attention gives me.

The image on my mind when I wake up in the morning,
Was what I look forward to back in the days.
But the same image I passed by today,
Is now just a familiar face.

I gave away my trust,
Let you look through my eyes.
I should’ve known that a different person was behind your facade,
I hope you get caught in your own web of lies.

I used to dream my hands could touch the moon,
That its distance isn’t more than a foot,
But reality isn’t so,
So I told my imagination to stay put.
Instead I’d raise my eyes,
Let them rest upon its dazzling beauty,
And thinking that in doing so I could reach the light,
That makes the night sky look pretty.
One evening I had a surprise visitor,
Just after I turned off the light to my room,
The moonlight beamed past the curtains of my windows,
Lifting my small space from its gloom.
After that I sensed a mutual affection,
That I wish I’ve figured out soon—
That when I was trying to reach the moon,
It was actually trying to reach me too.

Our words are a sword,
It pierces the heart and deep it can go.
It bleeds everything it touches,
When we let our emotions flow.
So in the next spur of the moment,
Be careful with your choice,
Because the same thing we use to heal,
Can also be the weapon that destroys.
