A Wish To the Moon

Illuminating beneath the moonlight She made a wish Closing her eyes under the iridescent spotlight She was not greedy For it was only one request To feel happy No longer depressed Then a flash lit up the sky Opening her eyes A peculiar man stood in front of her half her size You made a wish Tonight to the sky He asked waiting For a reply Stuttering still in disbelief She nodded nervously Insatable craving for relief I Grant the wishes that Come from the moon First let me tell You we all have wounds Perplexed the young girl Did not understand She began to cry Forever feeling damned Let me tell you about going through Pain Well see if it's a wish you still want to attain The moon shines on the darkest Of nights To give every creature some Form of light He sits back and watches the Sun in complete bliss At times feeling No one knows he exists When he is suffering the most he is only a sliver Even though not wanting He still delivers Yes he is not as bright As the burning sun however he is significant and needed a ton So young lady you see Everyone has pain You can't wish it away For we all have that stain She looked up and smiled For it all made sense Like the moon She would battle her sadness Regardless how intense
