i've always been attracted to the darkness
nighttime had been my favorite hours
and i would long for the sun to set
the moon kept me young
dunked me in her light
but the darkness that has settled over me is not the midnight i loved for so long
and each day i ache to touch him
to feel the soil that has planted such an extraordinary flower
he is the first spring morning to ever cross my mind
a breeze in the flames of hell
he is the light of the moon that i had lost for so many years
i turned to bones for him
shed the layers of myself so he could grant me with his approval
he never even knew
but i wish he did
