Moon hope

There is a moon 

Hanging over the window tonight

And I feel it is soon

Someone will come to make it right

Trapped inside walls

Of my own doing, I hide

It has been a long fall

My tears of loneliness, long dried

The doors are unlocked

I could walk out I suppose

But what lies around the block

No one knows, no one knows

I hear the footsteps

I cringe even as they pass my door

I have been here forever

Never knowing what will come forth

There is a moon 

Hanging over the window tonight

And I hope it is soon

Someone will convince me to fight
