The moon sat at the end of the road
waiting on the horizon
big and fat and full
with a belly full of dreams
and all they had to do was walk to it
and climb up
and float up and away
and out into the sky
and they walked
and they walked down the road
and the moon smiled
and purred and rolled in the night
and the road went through fields
and through mountains
and across rivers and streams
and under the ocean
and over the sea
and the moon got closer and closer
and they walked farther
and farther down the road hand in hand
and with every step their hearts grew
and their love grew
and the moon got bigger and bigger
and final they were at the end of the road
at the end of the world
and the moon opened up
and they climbed up and in
and slowly the moon drifted up
and away and out into the night
and they left all their human misery behind
and left with only each other
and their hearts overflowing with love
until with the moon they were

    gone
      
       gone
        
          gone
