Rises The Moon by Liana Flores

Days (1)________ sometimes as if they'll (2)__________ end
Sun digs its heels to (3)__________ you
But after (4)____________ days, one thing stays the same
Rises the moon
Days fade into a watercolour blur
Memories swim and (5)__________ you
But (6)________ (7)________ the lake, shimmering like smoke
Rises the moon
Oh-oh, (8)__________ (9)________ weary eyes
I promise you (10)________ soon the autumn comes
To darken (11)____________ summer skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Days pull you (12)________ (13)________ like a (14)______________ ship
Floating is getting harder
But tread the water, child, and know that meanwhile
Rises the moon
Days pull you up just like a daffodil
Uprooted (15)________ its garden
They'll (16)________ you what you owe, but (17)________ even so
Rises the moon
You'll be visited by sleep
I (18)______________ you (19)________ soon the autumn comes
To (20)__________ (21)________ (22)________ (23)__________ you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe
