how I miss the moon

I swear sometimes
the truth depends
on what I had for breakfast
and where the shadows knelt
to wait the light
it hurts my soul -
to think of how
forever came unnoticed
alone as I was dreaming -
of where I'd sleep
tonight

a time of telling
took so long -
destinies rewritten
words betrayed
to consequence -
and evermore to blame
I don't know when I'll come again -
(fulfilling every promise)
vows we made at sundown
as to reasons why
we came

with all night long
to talk myself
out of understanding

you took the stars
o how I miss the moon

forgiveness
seems so easy
tho I wander to the moments
remembered to a place
I keep (within)
love remains despite the age
(lifetimes passed together)
returned as grace to find us
(letting go again)

here I am
the same as love
memories of longing
words have lost their meaning -
the only truth
is me
