You Are The Moon

Shadows all around you as you surface from the darkEmerging from the gentle grip of night's unfolding armsDarkness, darkness everywhere, do you feel all alone?The subtle grace of gravity, the heavy weight of stoneYou don't see what you possess, a beauty calm and clearIt floods the sky and blurs the darkness like a chandelierAll the light that you possess is skewed by lakes and seasThe shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believeI will bring a mirror, so silver, so exactSo precise and so pristine, a perfect pane of glassI will set the mirror up to face the blackened skyYou will see your beauty every moment that you rise
