Dear Moon,
What makes you so beautiful....
Spectacular beauty...
Charming every one with your brightness....
Oh..tell us how we can shine just the way you do...
How nothing can withhold our inner beauty...
How nothing can shame us as we flaunt our scars and flaws...
Just the way you do..
As majestically you move across the sky..
With grace and humbleness..

How often have I wondered...
When my pain knows no end...
How in that big , dark universe..
You hold yourself quietly..
Being my only companion..
To hear my sighs...
And witness every tear...

Am I the only one....
Or are there more who you watch....
In the night's prison....
