Under the shadow of the moon
I buried my feelings for you.
I took time to think this through-
The one who held my world was you.
As time took hold of our story
I watched it slowly fade,
A beautiful burning red
Yet it became see-through.
You left me behind,
Erasing our past from your mind.
Oh god, I wished instead
To be the you who could let go.
Now I’m the only one grieving.
These memories became pain and sorrow.
I walk a lonely procession,
Shrouded in misted desolation.
So under the shadow of the moon
I mourned my feeling for you.
As I am no longer part of your tomorrows
Of these yesterdays, I let go.
