Mom
I fell in love with the moon
Only when she was leaving
Only when she was hurting
When the sky turned blue
the darkness would shift
and she slowly casted away
But every morning,
in the last hour of moon
I became aware of her
and all of her secret
And when she was dying,
I loved her
I didn't want her to go
but I didn't want her darkness
to surround me forever.
Please moon,
stay with me
Never let it grow
too dark
Never let me
lose sigh
Please moon,
let me see forever
Never leave me
No, never leave me
