The moon hung low in the sky
Like a balloon sailing into the unknown
Full, round, as though it might burst
I danced beneath, swaying to the instinctive rhythm within me
My shadows casting eerie glows
Darting, then peering out to take another glance
And suddenly she appeared
Silent, still
The hush of the night embraced me
Lending an ear to listen
A shoulder to cry on
The moon dipped low behind the clouds
Then vanished
Taking her into the mystery of night's end
As the rising sun unleashed the journey of tomorrow
