To the Moon and Back
Dear sister help me forget
Those days from so long ago
It never happened when we learned what we loved
We never got to build Rome
Impulsive actions make for years spent apart
Just improvising a life
Inviting strangers sharing warm anecdotes
Now please hand over the knife
The moon is so far and I cannot come back
From somewhere I’ve never been
No one to talk to and no sadness to trade
The red sun shines on your skin
