You are suspended in the desert
You wait for the moon to be full
So all the monsters would hide
And you’d continue your journey safely
With a heart so full of light and power
Of the only companion that is loyal
As it reveals itself naked in the skies
Luminous and radiant in a white gown
You are happy beyond words
You find your map, printed on the moon
You do not care where you head
As long as it watches you from the skies
Just as you start admiring it
It hides, manipulating you
It leaves you confused in the silent desert
Echoing your own thoughts
Wondering, and wondering
When you are soaked in fear and doubt
For days you can hardly count
It’s back, the moon, in the skies
As it sheds crystals of light on your ground
“Here is the way” it whispers
And you will then realize
You are forever lost in the maze
Surrounded with both darkness and light
Anticipating the full moon on your starless nights
And she..She was the moon in his skies
