Lost in moonlight deceptive
Where shadowy depths of my heart are exposed,
Enchanted by stray melodies
Softly escaping lips from long ago,
Feeling as if dreaming once more
I wake to face the day,
For something once lost has returned
What I thought to have long passed away.
Twilight becomes my comfort
As I sense the promise of sun,
For moonlight masks the truth
When shadows rampant run,
And light shall be the first sign
A new beginning shall rise,
Life shall be beautiful again
Love shall remove its stubborn guise.
I have finally found what was lost
It was my heart all this time,
Caught up in a world of fantasy
Where glamour can only survive,
In the moonlight where I first felt it
Sorrow and a deceptive love,
Tonight there is no moon
As I scan the heavens above.
There is only the here and now
As I realize what you have become to me,
Nothing more than a shadow
Lurking in the text of history,
And today I smile again
For sunrise reassures the weak,
Love of others has taught me much
Life nevermore shall be bleak.
