New Moon
The day you left caused people distress
I was left alone in the cold, wet forest
It's not your fault, you only tried to help
You didn't know I'd end up in such bad health
I was picked up by a different man
Who saw the cut and stitched me back up
I was almost well, but then there's the scar
A reminder to me of what couldn't be
For months I was numb, roaming the earth with no purpose
You'd been my meaning to life, but then you left with a 'bye'
How could you think that I would survive
You say I wasn't curled up in a ball, refusing to speak to the world
How very wrong you are my friend, I couldn't even bare to stand
My friends they talked, and talked to me
But I couldn't eat or drink or talk or breath
He became my sun, my reason to wake
I saw him every single day
I found out his deepest darkest secret
One he shouldn't have shared with me
He loved me with all his heart
And I loved him, with what remained of mine
You came back, and he backed away
He knew I'd chose you, for reasons I could not explain
All I can say is that you are my life, my air, my drug
If you left another time, I surely would not survive
So stay my beloved, and hum to me
That familiar melody.
