Two Moons To One

You closed yours eyes before the crash..
We woke in places that couldn't last..

Blinded by fables that we hoped were true..
Now our hands let go as your star flew..

In your own sky without my light..
Your star shines all too bright..

Till another day when our moons are one..
I'll sit to the side making sounds of none..



For Brian's contest

Oh, Michael, this is so sad and touching. I hope this is not based on a personal loss, but it did feel like you lost a child. Beautiful writing! Love, Carolyn
