Moon in Exile

There are nights the gaunt moon pretends to be thunder to enrapture the hell heavy heart but tonight, she sings not sweet silence asunder no light from her lips shall depart

"A faithful witness in the skies ..." Even when silent she speaks of the glories and follies of eons past. For she well knows the activity of the sons of men. That's my takeaway.
