Moonlight Shining

Moonlight shining 
Vaguely through my window

Its pale serene light
Ignites our path
But as the nights wear on
That lantern slowly fades
Into eternal darkness
A black envelope of lifelessness

Then dim in the distance 
Stars shine and twinkle
And as gorgeous as the moon was:

Stars out shine it
They carry wishes
They carry hope
They carry fate

Both beautiful and dangerous
Just as the rest of the world
