she once held the moon in her hands.

Broken hearted
She couldn't understand
Why he never returned
Oh, how his heart
In her fingertips, it burned

she cast it into the sky
inside her mind questioning why
Such love it had to die,

her heart stricken with pain
Crystal tears began to drain

freezing as they fell
consumed her love
this hell,

she picked them up
as they cut like glass
causing her hands to bleed,

casting them into the sky
begging to be freed,

a once black sky
became a scene,

a vision of where such love
had been,

She once held the heart of the moon
the stars the tears that fell,

she looked up at all she created
and suddenly broke the spell,

no longer was she in sadness
no longer in such despair,

how beautiful the night
her vision, such love
was painted fair,

how beautiful the moon
and the stars that shine,

How wonderful
was that love of mine.
