By the Moon

Rest you dear eyes, no tears shall you shed.

I’ll watch over you as you now rest your head.

Sleep peacefully, quietly, sleep all you want.

I shall protect you, though through night he might hunt.

He may come for you but I will be there

Protecting forever, my love I will share

You’re now safe with me I won’t let you go.

I’ll take him down, since he too is my foe.

You’ll wake in the morning and all will be well.

I’ll sit with you there in the light that is still.

We’ll laugh of old fights and sing of good times,

Those good and bad memories we now turn to rhymes.

You are now safe, the fight, it is done.

You’ll rest well at night, no longer you’ll run.

The ending will come, now not so soon.

Now rest by the night, by the light, by the moon.
