i wish i had the charisma my shadow has
dancing in the light
brimming with darkness
i never wished to completely let go of you -
i just couldn't bring myself to call -
i see the streetlights and the insects
fighting to burn, i think that's just human
i didn't realize this burning moon sweltered so silently -
i clasp my hands towards its existence
hoping some gap opens between time and space
and i may leave
and never return
