When You Hid From Me Your Beauty

When You Hid From Me Your Beauty To: The Moon I tried to look at your magnificent beauty, As you slowly moved behind the earth, Trying to evade my precious light, Did you have to try to let the whole world know? That you’re upset with me for a show, You were trying to give off your own light, And you know you only reflect from me? Any ways your beauty as you moved behind the shadow of the earth, Was of such I started to miss you at once, And when the earth’s ozone shattered my blue and green light and only my red shone through, And when you reflected the red light, Oh, you took my breath away, Dear moon I will never take advantage of you again for I fear, That you shall go behind the earth’s shadow, Once more and never show to me your beauty again. From: The Sun
