Moon of Sadness

Nude in front of you Slapped by bats but kissed by light Enigmatic scars No one understands but YOU... I dream of dreams of moon life... I pose - you draw me You take pictures of my soul Wondering what's wrong... Sadness... immortality How much Love I cannot give! For Tracie's "TANKA ME A MOONLIGHT DREAM... "

That second line of yours struck me... I like the contrast that you put in there, Iolanda! I like how you gave this a melancholic feel...another unique take that I saw for this contest :)
