"The Moon" Photograph ©Maleko 2012 |
From my scorched lungs my breath is squeezed
As the sand shifts slowly beneath my feet
Eagerly swallowing the drink of sweet poisoned lies
Moonlight glistens the sweat droplets on your skin
Endless echos of the past roll into a future lost
You are a million miles distant an arms length away
Trembling shaking hands reach out burdened by fear
Through the air streaming tears fall as passion rises
Love's promise all but undone the world is crashing
The sun fell plotting out the death of my heart
Left alone eternity beckons as a cold and lonely place
