Some eyes touch you more
than hands ever could.

Just as the moon
had different phases
each and every
single night,
you also
needed to
shed your skin
and
renew your glow
each and every
single night.
For the full
embodiment
of who you needed
to become,
change was essential.

La luna llena me preguntó:
“Qué es lo qué quieres más?”
y le contesté:
“Qué tu corazón
se enamoré con el mío.”

You deserve more than
what I can give you.
And it breaks
my heart knowing that.

I admire the moon’s unwillingness
to be photographed on a phone.

Even after
she has experienced
many heartaches
in the past,
what made her
beautiful
was
she understood
with love
comes risk,
but even so,
she was
willing to risk it all
because
she knew
she could take it
if in the end
didn't work out.
She knew
in the end
she would
never really lose
because
everything she did:
a kiss, a laugh,
a look, an embrace,
it all comes from
the very same place.
A pure heart.
