Shadow's hope

The moonlight beams on this eve's hour
With eyes that colored the setting sun
Shades and shades intensify, fade
Slowly close, drifting away

To leave a heart broken,
with a solitary tear
And a shadow saunters
To take a soul

Stay motionless, blend
as the winds flow.
Soon life will embrace you, my dear
Life from another world.

Oh sweet Luna cries in this eventide
In sight of mystique sorrow.
But such was never meant
To last til a lifetime's end

For at the summit of such undaunted night
Dawn will slowly creep,
For glory after strife;
Left no pain after death.
