I am the Moon

I am the Moon

Look at me glow, shining light reflected.

A light not mine, but beautiful in it’s brilliance,

regardless the season,

or tide.

***

Like a cloud, I carry dreams

amid the constellations aligned.

Riding upon gravity’s pull

to keep my face in existence.

***

The sky is mine in the dark,

amongst the wishes

and illusions

of firelight.

***

Just above the horizon,

or the tops of trees,

I see all that you see shadowed

in the twilight.

***

I eclipse the brightness

for my own sometimes,

so I don’t get swallowed up

in the darkness

***

surrounded by the stars.
