Letters from the Moon

Where have you been , my lover erratic wind , When i shone through the moans of a thousand unhappy souls . Glistened on the seas which murmured with the bees , tempting you to rise , take me by surprise , praying when the last bell tolls . Shameless hunger of mine , above all sins and divine , kept my eyes open , to linger on every word spoken in the stillness of the dark . I surrendered every light i borrowed from the night , mirrored on the hope , to let the poets grope in the dullness , a silver spark . So far stand i , you cannot hear me cry , So stretch my hands not , the laws have you forgot , which defines us to look forever gay . Plead them to love , even when the red clouds me above , overlooks with sullen pity , on damp matchboxes you call city , gray with the recall of the day . Every search ends futile , no Ganges no Nile , to let flow my pains , or to drench in the rains , You stole , left me deprived . Still i would smile , from many million a mile, Carry me , my scent , to the skies where i descent, And remember once and now , in a lonely corner i survived .
