Jar of Hearts: An Anthology

Are you weary, my moon? Are you tired of shining? The pain shall end so soon, Now you'll see a silver lining. / Your ever pearly glow, Slowly, surely, paling; No more tears to sow, Even as the heart's breaking. / Sleep now, my glowing moon, The sun has come to fetch you; Here now the dawn comes so soon, Painting the heavens so blue. / For it is among the stars, Where you truly belong; For it is the end of wars, That heralds and sings this song. / Don't cry, don't shed a single tear, As we cannot be together; Oh my moon, you should not fear, For this is not our forever. / We shall meet my love, once more, When the tides shall rise and fall; And the deepest seas shall roar, You'll shine again for one and all. / Sleep now, my glowing moon, Here now the dawn comes so soon; You are now among the stars, For you have ended all thy wars. -- Ode to the Moon, from the novel The Northern Gate: Two Worlds By Matthew Spades Copyright license under Stary PTE This is an original work of literature.
