Moon
Chalky moon staring down upon the black night
You who are so interested in life’s struggles
Emotionless blank stares
But you cannot hide the smiling stars
So you shyly tuck yourself away behind a fog
Moon, you are bold!
Why hide your inquisitive face?
Did you not know you are the night’s ruler?
So powerful that you sometimes linger into day?
You allow the sun its deserved nap
And tuck away each night with inspiration
So stare on, dear moon
And melt the coldest of hearts!
