walking at twilight
looking at the moon
through the branches
stepping into the shadows
blending in
breathing the cool air
eyes wide and yet unseeing
feet dancing slowly yet surely
deeper into the forest
into the darkness
moonlit face
silvery eyes
a half-smile
she walked into the night
shadows playing
she danced with them
following the night breeze
blending in
her steps grew quieter
closed eyes in a moonlit face
silver tears on pale cheeks
the night called softly
the shadows swayed gently
go back, it's not time
she shook her head, I can't
I've lost the way and the light
the moon touched her hair
I will shine for you
but the way? she asked
I will help you find it
the breeze whispered
I will be alone
she shook her head
we will dance for you
the shadows promised
we will wait here for you
the night called softly
the shadows swayed gently
go back, it's not time
she took a deep breath
opened her eyes
filled with silent words
she followed the breeze
in the light of the moon
stepping through the darkness
lightly, carefully
through the night
by the edge of the trees
she found the dawn
