Luna Llena

A silver moon watches you,

Writhing, under, another night you can't get through

If you know those itchy bones

If you’re one of the many few

Bargaining and betting

Their soul to see the day

Hushed exchanges, deals in dark nights

Prophecies, promises, possibilities

You are a river gushing

Through a tunnel with no end

You are a crying torrent

A hailing Godsend

Our silver moon watches you

Loyal and ancient and true

She’s seen the tides, how they change

She believes in you, every piece of you

Who will look up to the skies again

At the same point next year

Gaze at the very same moon

You once stared at in fear

And all at once, smile widely

At its impossible light

Knowing you made it out,

Out of that dark night
