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.
