Moonlight Reflections

I lie beneath the moon’s soft, glowing light
while distant stars remain in silent flight
tonight’s main character is the moon
while I am just an observer from my room
struggle to quiet a mind that’s in disarray
yet my heart brims with emotions that sway
and my soul drowns in the wide ocean of grey

that moon conjures memories of someone dear
who has made a home within my thoughts clear
his therapeutic words cling like a gentle embrace
melodies seeping through, bringing peace to my space
and put my nerves at ease to feel the serenity
when my head was overwhelmed with uncertainty
he gives me the light to keep me steady

I recall someone who rekindled my faith in love
after grief had shattered me, a push from above
someone who has a gentle soothing smile
who has motivated me to walk another mile
when the darkness locks me on the inside
to fight the tide that seems never subside
but his poetry helps me to step out into the daylight

I remember someone who mirrors spring’s embrace
with blooming flowers and birds in grace
a blessing that I thought only existed in a dream
a saviour that mended my broken esteem
but his presence is real only without a pair of wings
through him, I have found a reason to keep going
to have hope in facing whatever the world brings

I am still lying beneath the moon’s gentle gaze
time seems infinite in the night’s quiet haze
and I don’t think that I can just stop
remembering about him and shutting it off
without feeling a hint of underlying sadness
some souls are destined to collide with the universe
but are not destined to be each other happiness
