Analysis of Moon Lover



   She is like the moon-

Mysterious in her change.

Steady in her tune.

She comforts with her light;

And she destroys with her tide.

Oh, what a sight.

She is like the moon-

Her skin glimmers.

Her smile- who is immune?

Her halo is seen.

Beguiling- not her but a star.

She causes you to reach-

So far above.

Though none can beseech

To feel her love.
