Rises The Moon by Liana Flores

Days seem sometimes as if they'll never end
Sun (1)________ its heels to (2)__________ you
But after sunlit days, one thing stays the same
Rises the moon
Days fade into a watercolour blur
Memories swim and haunt you
But look (3)________ the lake, shimmering like smoke
Rises the moon
Oh-oh, close your weary eyes
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To darken fading summer skies
Breathe, breathe, breathe
Days (4)________ you down (5)________ (6)________ a (7)______________ ship
Floating is getting harder
But tread the water, child, and know that meanwhile
Rises the moon
Days pull you up (8)________ like a daffodil
Uprooted from its garden
They'll tell you what you owe, but know (9)________ so
Rises the moon
You'll be visited by sleep
I promise you that soon the autumn comes
To steal away each dream you keep
Breathe, breathe, breathe
