when we're together holding hands
and in a world completely of our own
the tenderness I feel for you
outshines the moon and sun
it's in the way you fill my heart
with caring warmth and goodness
i savour the virtue and integrity
of a soul that's sweepingly atoned
and that gentleness is all the sweeter

The Moon becomes closer,
My cogitations remain jumbled
I escaped the town a while ago
The festering wounds did not heal
Nothing could usher me backward
The surviving solids stayed held tight
All my affections are still within me.
I cannot reckon the stain has gone
My mind was blind, but my heart knew
A load of despair hangs on my neck
Why did you believe this agenda would work?
All efforts to turn desire into love failed.
I am navigating the sea of nothingness,
Turning sweepingly, feet whirled
I bestowed the fluid into a frenzied whirl
Above, gentle waves touch the neck
They threatened me while I was still smiling
There were no signs of land in the vicinity
My toes are itching, and my feet are squirming
A strong will is our only chance for survival.

Regrettably, you're forswearing considerateness.
Because of your deeds, my heart has been disparaged.
However, the faithful has devolved into the dreadful.
There was nothing but words scribbled on a journal.
It's a sincere pity you're sweepingly slighting kindness.
Placing the underachievers on a dazzling betrayal.
Escape the fierce curse of those who benefited.
If you tamely yield to the glare, he will rebel.
Some people keenly appreciate and admire your skill.
Because of your frailty, some individuals devour you.
I sweepingly meet the slope to face with utmost reality.
There are a lot of glorious deeds for which we are careless.
It's viable to espy, as often as you sense fraternity.
While the rest of the local hut yearns, we are peerless.
Elements that are all around us for a convenient setting.
Being a piece of a visible world that is constantly shifting.
Aiming for a genuine feeling of bearing and mutual safety.
Having a feeling of mutual comfort and moral stability
Since we've risen dutifully and moved forward as a group.
Despite your prime motive for being closer, it does not dupe.
A particular pair of us spurring with a significant deal of ardency.
Others, then again, tacitly allow it to happen, sit aimlessly.
Gleaning to support any kids, we should hold them a prong.
Aiming to convey to them a prevalent belief of good and wrong.
Otherwise, this way, I'm gently moving to undergo the stress.
Everyone promptly settles on typical speed and cadence.
