Moon

I was always fascinated by looking at the moon. The way she hovers, low beyond the horizon, just starting to rise. The way she shines through the branches, the cracks, the pavement.

I was always fascinated by the moon. Her craters awe me. How could she look so beautiful with all these imperfections?

I'd look at the sky, each night, hoping to look at her beauty, her peace, her sanity. I'd look at her, hoping to grasp a semblance of hope.

And when she leaves, I turn away and refuse to accept her lender's light. And maybe that's how you always felt about me- oblivious to how I can be more than what you need.
