the moon is your element,
underneath it you alight
with its pure lunar dew
all senses become the air and
the water as your heartbeat
sends ripples into me
i can feel that and more as fingertips
trace my reaction to it gently
upon your bare skin back
but it seems beyond my capacity to
channel the energy and lift from you
the heaviness of your thoughts
so we sit still as i let you
bathe quietly within
your element
if you happen to glance and
catch me gazing upward,
remember—
the stars, they are
all mine...
