He and Horizon
In some distant valley,on a mountain's peak
Sat a girl with arms around her knees
Had anyone ever seen her so petrified?
Something he provoked seemed to die
She stared at horizon,shuddered in cold
Her heart was so tired and grown too old
One after another,she dropped a tear
Her soul was screaming but he couldn't hear
Then for once,she admired the settling sky;
The dark and distressed clouds just moved by
It was so lovely,so beautiful to be cleared;
Imprisoned by her thoughts,she too wished to be spared
The orange,the blues had mingled into one soul,
So many delights made the horizon whole
The unknown territories had mixed into a blessing
But moon and stars were the only one messing
She loathed the sight of night covering by
Her heart and horizon were still in a dive
She needed light to think,to reveal
The presence of love might let her heal
The horizon decided to end this show,
It took her breath away to see it go
The horizon had stolen away her answers
And moon and stars were the only left dancers
She stared at the sky and the moon shined in her face,
It was so bright and elated,it beheld her beloved's grace
The moon was the only one watching her cry:
Should she give up and let her feelings die?
The moon seemed infuriated at her strange thoughts,
Clouds had came in and moon had refuge sought
She felt dejected,neglected and pained;
It reminded her of her beloved who nearly did the same
She had been abandoned as if she's lied
And then she was told that no explanations were required
No answers to questions;Did he love her or not?
Just at that moment moon had subject bought
Shining at her face,it told her a story
The clouds have moved away as if it was her glory:
"Wait my love until I reach the skies,
Keep your love strong and don't let it die"
"Dreams and victories are not made of clay;
They don't serve you success in some golden tray"
It was the voice of her love,she knew by heart
Without any horizon,she now knew where to start
Even if earth turns black and blue,
She would love him with a heart very true
Nothing would set them apart,
Because even the distant moon's light never dart
