The Moon and Her Silver Army MAG
I’ve always found comfort in the moon
She watches over the night crawlers
The misfits
The criminals
The lonely
The numb
Anyone who happens to be wandering aimlessly through the night
Anyone who is wide awake at 3 a.m.
Anyone who is searching desperately for something to numb the pain
The sun shines a blinding light that picks the less fortunate apart
Illuminating their flaws for anyone to see
But the moon shines only a small glow that envelops their scars with a silver hue
The moon watches over everyone from time to time
She was there for me then
When no one else was
She sang me the night’s lullaby
While drizzling liquid silver into my veins
Maybe that’s why everything bad goes down at night
Maybe we are all just doing her bidding
All of us her army tied together by silver
Is it wrong?
Probably
But I owe it to her
The moon gave me a home
And that’s something the sun could never do
