Don't see yourself as the nuisance
Before the pain
Or see yourself as the cloud
Before the rain.
                  Instead
See yourself as the credit
Before the prize
And the love that shines
from your children's eyes.

The cold moon breaks through the crevices
and where do I hide?
there's nothing to haunt my mind
but only the guilts inside.

Told not to venture into the night
I braved in the power of moonlight
where every shadow was a ghost
every dark nook a lost coast.

If I had someone with me
it wouldn't be all that scary
but I left them on the way
thinking I wouldn't need them anyday.

The loves I betrayed
the souls I traded
descended behind the tree
like the waning moon.

Before long the dark would devour me
knowing, I moved down with the moon
with none but the sighs on my side..

The derelict offered no place to hide.

Don't borrow tomorrow
To stay in today
While living in yesterday.

Thwack !
The wiper swiped
The rain off.

Let it be open
So the love can flow
Let it burn through
And leave
An indelible mark
On your soul.
