Tears of a Moon Princess

Tears of a Moon Princess 


Beautiful Selene, hear my cry

I get down to my knees, in prayer

To you, my heart and soul, I bear

As I look to you in the sky

Death and war...I implore you to decry

I pray for your love and light

To keep them within your beautiful sight

You must keep them safe. You must try.

Down my face, fall silver tears...

Answer me. Please, answer me soon.

Hear me. Hear my cry.

My tears...they signify my worst fears

Great goddess, Selene, of the Moon

These tears of a moon princess do not lie
