Moonlight and sun's delight, I waited all throughout the night,
A prayer there, a prayer here, a prayer everywhere and never near,
Until thy prose of want, of thy name is clear, until I wept because of fear,
Did she come forth and lie to me, when my thoughts were just a light,
She did return, but out of yearning, but she would never stop corroding,
I blinded myself, founded my self, and took her hand foreboding,
In that mistake, I came to realize, the nature of her nurture was all a mirror,
Of times to come, of times that I would see the poison in her.
Safely, did she say that I would be in safe hands, that I would have to worry not,
Yet, I worried always, that her hands might fall, that all she'd do was naught,
Dauntingly, I fought, though her intentions I had caught, which she upon me brought,
Though, in the end, she did not keep her promise, she'd taken foot and ran,
After bounties of love, and forgiveness, did the falling of the mask began,
So, I saw the lies she had laid before me, a tactful ploy to take on for me,
A hidden truth, a hidden lie, a hidden alibi, upon the moonlight it would be,
Then I took my power, and turned away, so she could stab me once again,
She lured me in, and I fell prey, for once again, she would taunt the love that she had slain,
And in that moment, I tumbled, tumbled, down and fumbled,
In my arrogance, I had realized, that it was my path to be humbled,
For a lesson learned is not so learn-ed, unless the person chooses to be led to learn it,
Thus, fret not for the heart that's broken, be the person who is humbled, and learned to earn their grit.
Is this not all, we've meant to befit? Why spend tears on such a skit, it's better altogether, to just quit.
