Colour of moonlight in her eyes, haunting secrets, half hidden
Overshadowed by tears held back, she has my heart
Nearer to death, she walks through fire
The flames don’t touch her
Quick as lightning, she runs ahead of dark storms
Under moonlight, I watch her swim through the milky way
Every beat of my heart, calls for her to stay
Return home, the door is open, I wait
Overnight, the many prayers I whisper swim towards her
Rushing through my days, eager for evening
Stars appear, I wait…
