Wonderful words! Forces me to think what if I were the moon? I would have replied...

Deathly silence grows as with the night,

I wait for caresses and tender rays of light.

Amidst darkening dreams and darkened hue,

My heart still knows it beats for you.~

My dear star, I wandered far and wide,

Yet no one soothed my silver tide.

In the quiet night, I sheltered in love’s soft glow,

Longing for the melodies we once did know. ~

Though shadows danced and whispers grew,

Like the earth, you spun around too.

I’ve been burning in the sun’s fierce glow,

You may call me "the moon," but am I the only one you know? ~
