Rises The Moon by Liana Flores

Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end
Sun digs its heels to taunt you
But after sunlit days, one thing (1)__________ the same
Rises the moon
Days fade into a (2)______________________ blur
Memories (3)________ and haunt you
But (4)________ into the lake, shimmering like smoke
Rises the moon
Oh-oh, close your weary eyes
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To darken (5)____________ (6)____________ skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Days pull you down just like a sinking 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 from its garden
They'll tell you what you owe, but know (7)________ so
Rises the moon
You'll be visited by sleep
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To (8)__________ away (9)________ dream you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe
