Dancing With the Moon
Tonight, I enter the wood
The black tar of night envelops me
Winter creeps up my spine
Making its way through my nerves
Freezing at my fingertips
All light is absent now
Save for the glinting of Her yellowed lunar glow
Off the frozen tundra
That crunches beneath
My bare, frostbitten feet
Gazing at the sky,
Her light washes over my features
She enters my lungs
She spreads through my blood
I am chilled and enchanted
Shall I dance with Her?
She has already gripped my frail body
With her luminescent fingers
So I give in
To her unconditional light
My Moon, my love, my light
I will waltz with Her into the night sky
Away into the stars
As she lifts me from my frozen feet
Letting me abandon my mortality
