Do not swear by the moon, for she changes constantly. Then your love would also change.                                                        -William Shakespeare



It's all happened many moons ago

Was born as toy everyone throw

I am a loser. They called me "dreg"

I always never get what I did beg


Even rain does not want to talk to me

Clouds don't cry. Cause they all are happy.

Sitting in my bed I'm finding a reason.

I wish i could be like normal people.


The only shady moon is my companion

I talk to her. It makes my feelings burn

Even she sometimes hides behind clouds

Doesn't want to listen. Fades in cloud shrouds.


Then I am alone. Alone with my thoughts

Can't throw em-they tie my hands in knots.

Voices're screaming that I am a nonentity

I admit because recently I lost my identity 


Now I compare myself with shady moon

Hiding dark side. listening star's croon.

But in reality there is no dark side

It's all dark. I know it . Moon lied.


She is watching me from the dark blue sky

I can watch for hours while people pass by

You only see her when the sun lights her

But she has soul, not a blind allure.


Compare:Sun wakes you every morning

Leaves in sunset and back in dawning

Sun's like people: they come and leave.

Dessapear. But Moon will always be here.


She is not the sun everyone's praying for

One viewer -moon does not need more

Shekspeare wrote not to swear by her

So maybe, but can he find a better cure ?


I change my mindset like she's changing shape

I'm living in Set against an arid moonscape 

stars are dancing the warrior of the sun

Better to be moon than the self-loved one.
