Analysis of The Queen Of The Night



Walking with her head held high,
 grazing in the moonlit sky.
She appears only at night but Why?

There's so much sadness in her face,
 I wonder what brings her to this place?
Is there some memory she wants to erase?

I watch her on the low key,
For she would never notice me,
or how good together we would be.

So much about her I wish to know,
Like what makes her smlie,
 what will make her glow?

I guess I'll settle for being her shadow,
The queen and I, in the night alone.
