I sit outside
With my old friend, the moon
Thinking about life,
When my thoughts orbit to you
Wondering if you feel it too
And if you do, is it true?
Does my loneliness skew
The way my eyes view
These emotions that brew?
Everything I feel is new
And oh so scary.
I don't feel me breaking through,
Like it's all imaginary.
As if your heart just eludes-
All the moves
That I make to get closer.
Sometimes I feel warm, but
When it leaves I'm even colder
Than before.

I watch the glow bugs dance in the darkness,
Like stars that broke out of space's harness
And I wish they were me,
Fragments of my soul set free
To get lost in nature's serenity,
To just stop thinking...
'Cause when I do, the moon
Just pulls me back to you.
Wondering if you feel it too,
The desire- the need
That grows inside like greed.
To look up and reach out,
Grab all the stars I can count.
To make a wish with no use,
One to see you soon.
