Bella Luna

Take a second to stop and look
at the beauty she beholds,
patiently resting in her place
as the world beneath her sleeps.

Standing guard with an army of stars
to fight any demons that intrude her sky.
Protecting all that is in her reach,
there's no distance too far for her love.

Use her as a mirror for your soul
and you will find a true reflection,
the inner self you hide within,
behind the outline of the shadowed front.

Oh Bella Luna, please teach us tonight
how to accept the beauty we have inside.
Let us shine in our own self respect
and reflect the confidence we grow.

In time our lessons will be learned
and we will stand beneath our sky,
looking in the mirror that shows us the truth:

the perfect beauty we each behold.
