Mother Moon
Quiet said the moon
the children are sleeping
away in their rooms our light only seeping
towards them the light barely for them
here in the sky all you feel is boredom
only to watch but to never adore one
lay quiet my children
with the sky full of millions of eyes
and your eyes on my sky lets me watch you
like lovers do
my gentle feel only to embrace such a face
such as yours sharp as swords for a war
How you pain me
as I siege at the cusp of the earth
like a mother at birth
nor I
for I have fallen and failed
yet still I sail for shores that adore your presence
My children
even in my banished state
from afar I see you
As love knows no bounds
I roam amongst the clouds and celestial bodies
to feel you
My stars excite the sky
The only gift to offer
acknowledgment that I am here
As so many that have looked past me
Who I have loved in loss
Your mother is waiting
I have herd the cries of the hurt and the scorned
Crying tears much like mine
For you are not alone
My shackles Bind me
But my inner unwinds me
Forever is not enough time to deter my longing
You my children are the cause
The birth of the earth
Sleep my children
I'll stay watch
