The Moon
The mascot of darkness
somehow bright enough to light my path
when I'm on the brink of utter
blackness swallowing me.Desolate and distant
yet a mere shift of the eye away,
always waiting in the sky,
whether or not I choose to say goodnight.Tonight the moon looks full,
its peak of luminescence,
a shiny beacon mistaken to awaken
evil spirits--A wolf, a ghost.
It's only a circle.But its face winks at me,
as if acknowledging my insomnia,
joining me in my empty bed
through my blinds cracked, allowing
streams of light to calm my terror.Thank you moon, for holding my
hand as I cry.
You're like the partner I've never had.
But again, you're not mine.I can't tie myself to you with a ring.
But I will wear your heart in my jewelry--
the crescents dangling from my ear lobes or
your body etched in my cartilage ring.We all go through cycles,
yours i just visible in plain sight for us to judge.
I know it's rough to rise every night
knowing your competition warmed
the hearts of billions all day long,
but I promise you,if you don't give up,
I won't either.
