When the Moon Moves Rondine

When the Moon moves out of sight slow 
it stages a nightmarish dream; 
Your pulse jumps inside your bloodstream 
with an irrational tempo;
Smiling like a jester although 
you can hear every silent scream
when the Moon moves;
Closing your eyes is a deathblow 
suffocated by the extreme;
With a blood curtailing moonbeam 
can you truly trust your shadow 
when the Moon moves?
