Half-Moon Sky

Half-moon sky
Footsteps on lonely heart
I filled myself 
longing to share with you
open window
cigarette smoke
talking
longing
longing
longiiiing
knock
whisper
yes, please come in
I have waited so long
long
longing
this bed 
is yours
that I have taken
this bed
that I lay in wait
Have I hesitated?
Missed my cue?
Run too far?
Scared you away?
Now
we scuttle in the dark
like long-legged
spiders
callused
6-legged
misunderstood
night 
falls short
and daylight 
feels to long
I keep buzzing
so you will think high of me
Yet, I doubt you've 
seen
me 
at all
Sliding door
one month
feels
like a moment
To trek
from this dark
side
of the moon
Hidden by the shadow
of the night side
your ayla
shines bright
unreachable
it seems
for this foreign Ich
Open window
July breeze
whisky and wine
rolled cigarettes
Half-moon sky
How do I get to you?
