The mascot of darkness,
Somehow always bright enough to light my path,
When I'm on the brink of utter,
Darkness swallowing me
Desolate and distant,
A mere shift of the eye away,
Always watching in the sky,
Whether or not I choose to say goodnight
Tonight, the moon looks full,
It's peak of luminescence
A shiny beacon, mistaken to awaken
Evil spiritsㅡa wolf or ghost,
It's only a circle
But it's face winks at me,
As though acknowledging my insomnia,
Joining me in my empty bed,
Through my blinds cracked,
Allowing gentle streams to calm my terror
Thank you Moon,
For holding my hand as I cry,
Like a partner I've never had,
Only to remember 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 dancing from my ear lobes,
Or your body etched into my cartilige ring
We all go through cycles,
Yours visible in plain sight for onlookers to judge,
But fear not, my dear,
As you are more beautiful than none
It must be rough to rise every night,
But knowing your competition warmed the hearts
Of billions all day long
I make an oath, a promise
For if you don't concede,
I won't either
So breathe,
My lovely Moon,
Radiate your beauty,
For all to see, but for none to touch.
