The Moon
Azarel 2008 (houston)
Peeking from the curtains of light
Stands a small existence
known as the moon
No one knows its even there
For the shy one has no spot
In the domain of the great bright Sun
But when the light leaves
A cold lonely darkness wakes
and Illuminating from the sky
Will be the Mystical Moon
Waning and waxing over the years
in a different form when It's seen
Always bright until it’s life is
Born anew in its dark form
But keeping its beauty and job
Protecting our land
from A cold dark wasteland
From which we were born
