A fantasy nighttime song

I was just playing some chords and got some melody that reminds me of John Mayer for some reason, have no idea which of his songs but I am pretty sure I accidentally stole some of his tunes. Either way, I wrote a song to it and it fits pretty well with the HollowWorld theme and I do have some connection I value with the community here that I don't have anywhere else. So I hope you can appreciate it, or if not the song, at least the poem.

Goodnight to the Moon

He talked
of rivers and forests
singing a chorus
to comfort the day.

I heard
that cities destroyed it
although they loved it
they were to blame.

Used to be
in our fantasy
before too soon
we forgot to say goodnight to the moon.


He said
that there is a creature
that runs through the night
and puts dreams in my head.

I knew
that this time tomorrow
I forgot all my dreams
as they seeped from the bed.

Used to be
in our fantasy
before too soon
we forgot to say goodnight to the moon.


Mage old
dragon with rider
beast of the bog
and the fairies aloft.

I'm old
my life's much less wilder
a head full of fog
and my skin's peeling off.

Used to be
in our fantasy
before too soon
we forgot to say goodnight to the moon.
