Tidal locking






Like waxing and waning 
of moon, his love shuddered,
The tidal locking 
that hampered my zing,
Effulgent life lost
in darker side of silvery moon.

In its brightness 
drowned my shimmer,
Then it abated into a sickle
to slice my pride,
Forlorn, I chose to live by
the dark side of the moon.

Consumed by its force, 
deep on this side of earth 
where peace calls my name 
I lean and stay, 
over the reflection of waves 
on the dark side of the moon 

The horizon rips my heart 
two bodies weaken 
by its physical use, 
and tidal locking 
Welcoming and affecting everything 
On the dark side of the moon

I am Thankful to Linda for contributing last two stanzas that have made it amazingly meaningful and beautiful.

~ A poet destroyer collaboration~

Tidal locking- tidal forces from Earth slow down rotation of moon and the same side faces the earth. The other side, the darker side always remains dark.
