A New Moon Tragedy

She closed her eyes

Still waiting for his reply

She breathed slowly

Her hopes sinking lowly

She put her faith in him

The sun fading dim

The decisions he has to make

Is her soul his to take?

Or does he already have it?

Her hopes left dimly lit

He speaks to her with painful words

But three was all she heard

Forever is what he promised

Would she forever be missed?

If she followed him

Would she finally win?

Forget the sorrow

Leave it for tomorrow

But now is all she's got

No matter how hard she fought

He's got forever

But she might never.
