Moon Shadows

Are you a hidden spirit
that refuses to come out
or a ghost that is tired of
making us sprint or run out
to the forest and hide

Or are you a mystical saint
that was sent by the Gods
to appease the lonely, the old
and the tired in this world of
dreams, illusions and the sad

Or maybe you are a Deity
comparable to a lovely queen
or a kind king of love that fills
the river Nile which waters the
hot and the arid desert that camels
reign and roam day and night

But maybe you are the son of doom
the king of the devil that no one love
or care or the agent of the underground
that causes hell, havoc, hate and floods

Moon shadows are a passing fancy
of the heavens at hand
It is a sign of the times, the sign of a journey
that will end in due time
Like life, moon shadows are just spectacle
that are nice to watch but never to end
forever for it is only just there in a given time

Moon shadows will end
as the day will turn into night
Moon shadows will bid
farewell and goodbye
as you are left there alone,
standing, staring at the skies
totally captivated
and totally mesmerized...

Moon shadows why can't you just stay for awhile :)
