Moonlight Sonata

Star Bright, Moon Light

it is the moon that intrigues me.
the soft silvery light
that sings lullabies into the night.

the moon is more forgiving
than any sunlight I've seen,
though profoundly beautiful,
and warming with it's golden colors.
I prefer the moon.

After seeing the light,
and knowing the dark
I prefer the moon.

The night is my cover.
The peace as the world falls asleep,
and leaves the world to me.

The night is my freedom.
The world is my playground,
once the sun says goodbye
until morning.

The moon with his pale light, gentle
but with powerful ways of moving the tides.
Seductive and caring.
The moon with his secrets,
I want to understand him more.

I have been the moon's lover.

Listen to me sing
as the moon fills.
Listen to my song,
much louder than the crickets.

I have touched the moon,
and forever am changed
by the impression left upon me.
