she was the moon
radiating in the night sky
and dancing among the stars

its not me you hear crying,
its everything and everyone
trapped inside
trying to escape

you belong among the wildflowers
in a world where honeybees buzz with curiosity
and blue birds fly free

you belong among the evergreens
where the tallest trees grow endless
and the harshest winds
blow with a sweet innocence

you belong among the stars
where moons illuminate night skies
and dance around planets like dolls

My thoughts echo as our lips graze
each other reaching for more and more
Your eyes flutter shut like a butterflies wings
taking off for the first time
You twirl my hair around my fingers
sending shivers through my spine
The light breeze dissolves your perfume
into the cool air carrying away
Sweet smells of rebellion into the night
and away from the rooftop we lay on
Your honey-coated laugh pierces the delicate
silence sending shards of elastic air floating all around us

And as i sat and watched the moon rise and the sun set
I thought of your laugh and the way it starts and never stops
I thought of the times youve risen higher than even you thought possible
I thought of the when you made yourself happy and really felt it
I thought of the way you are soft, yet fierce and full of rage
And i know in the morning when the sun comes out and the fog lifts, you will be there, standing powerful and fearless.

She sleeps because her dreams are prettier than reality
