I watch as moonlight

I watch as moonlight

Reflects off your tear-stained face

You lift your head

Toward the star-ridden sky

As if asking 'Why?'

What did you do to deserve this?

Nothing

You are but an innocent pawn

Destined for great things

But for now

You will cry

And wonder why

The world seems to hate you so

One day you'll understand

Why I had to do this

I don't enjoy seeing you weep

Almost giving up

A battle

You might not win
