Eclipse of the Heart

The tides are roaring high,
the wind soaring nearby
the sound of seconds ticking by
indicating the hour is nigh

Just open up your eyes,
look into the abysmal sky
and be enthralled by the glorious light,
the magnificence of such a knight

who has protected thee
against astronomical monstrosities
the guardian of your seas
soak in its generosity.

Even though it has an empty hearth,
in no way question its heart.
It can’t itself burn bright,
but it puts no less of a fight

Even without a blanket of warmth
it takes on the heat of sun.
In spite of its barren plight
it keeps brightening your dreary nights

And when you give in to the dark,
it keeps on shining its divine light.
So you can be on the path thats right
and against the darkness you can fight.

It gives and gives and gives,
gives back most of what it takes,
when who you worship in the day
is unable to stay

Love isn’t always grand,
sometimes its mild and tender.
It looks out for you,
even when you’re deep in slumber.

For ages you’ve romanticised,
in its blessings you took delight.
the beauty that you pride,
the blessing of moonlight.

So, look up in the sky,
look at the magnificent sight.
the awaited hour is nigh,
the moon rises in the sky.

As spreads on the crimson hue,
of the love long overdue,
look at it and rejoice,
and try not to get your eyes moist

You wouldn’t want to miss this,
a heavenly love’s crimson kiss.
Lovers that live miles apart,
a barren rock and a fuming star.

Born of the same womb,
they share the blood and the tomb.
Yet miles apart they stay,
for your life to blossom and sway.

Years and years of separation,
day and night the repetition.
Running and spinning through the motions,
yet never questioning the notion.

That is the sacrifice they make,
for you to sleep sound and then to wake.
Today lets put something of ours at stake,
lets bridge the gap for heavens sake.

Let us grant a moments reprieve,
to the jobs that they both keep.
Let us take on the burning light,
of the lover thats doom and life.

Let the other rest tonight,
let's fight the blues and let love be the light.
Let our blood pay its price
Let only love flow through the night

Lets light up the sky,
with the heavenly love that gives us life.
The blood moon is reigning nigh,
and its a bewitching sight.
