The cool autumn breeze
Carries my thoughts
Upon the falling leaves
As they float through the air
On a journey unknown

He completes me, with a subtle air
That surrounds us both, like a cocoon
He wraps his arms around me, I find
Solace and safety, knowing this
Will always be our lives, together
As close as two can possibly be
We are equal, spirits, lovers, friends
Lifetime partners, sharing hopes
Dreaming of tomorrow, rejoicing
Our world is one, as we are one
A single entity, an unending bond

Sleep escapes me
Dare I close my eyes?
Only to fade into the darkness, that
Suffocates my soul, terrorizes my mind
Thrashes against my being, until I
No longer fight it, but welcome it
Draw it further into my heart, let it
Rip me apart, tear at me, and I
Locked in a cocoon of sweat, succumb
To the sweetness that is the night
The passion and desire of the dark
Knowing, eventually, I will awaken…
I will, won’t I?

I can almost reach it
The place my heart wanders
Where my soul endlessly flies
In and out of the darkness
Happier to hide in the craters
And follow the shadows, then
Watch the sun creep up, as it
Illuminates that famous face
While I, content to remain here
On the dark side, where no one
Can see me, as I dodge the light
Allows me to become a shadow
Blending in with your surface
Feeding off your moon beams
Reflecting, with the stars, gathering
Dreams, listening to my heart and
Realizing, I never wish to go home.

You disappeared, out of sight
Swallowed by the darkened sky
A sliver, you couldn’t hold your ground
Even Venus, with her brilliance
Was no match for the storm
On this clouded summer night
Author’s Note: I was able to catch a glimpse of the young moon and Venus, until the storm clouds took over, and they disappeared into the night.
