Do not steal my moon and leave me out to sea with tears of passion.... Where is my moon? the one that I pledge to of my undying love, how has it covered the sun and still be hidden from sight? how has darkness with its heavy footsteps Come to knock at my door, yet leave the light craving for more of an empty musical score In a night without the rays of its breath, making it a cynical stage in a meaningless world...
I have come to ask you In this moonless night of pain Not to forget me, when you close your eyes to kiss another lips...
Do not forget me, when you cradle another one in a fervent embrace...
such spectacular feelings of which I have never come to know.... nor my eyes have come to see.... nor my touch has come to taste...
remember my name and its sound of life, remember my song and its words of woe...
oblivion is death in the hands of a twisted dagger piercing my heart with a magnitude of sorrow unmatched...uncontested... with blood in the wine of regret...
I ask thee only to forget me not For I will always thee remember Remember thy face, they voice... and all that in thee I have come to love..
For if my moon were there then I could swear with all my might and turn this lonely day into a moonlit night of chance, and romance
Where is my moon?
