Moonstruck

I want to be like the moon,
A source of guiding light in the dark,
For the people lost in sempiternal darkness.

I want to be like the moon,
Who shines in the gloom, glowing with vigour,
A muse for the lover of arts.

I want to be like the moon, 
Radiant in the luminosity of the sun,
Surrounded by the dancing stars.

I want to be like the moon,
Too far, from everyone's reach,
Yet very close for those who seek.
