Lune

.

I am your moon; oh discreet and soft is my glow.

A sweet and shy child of the mysterious night

Dancing in the mirror, always in your shadow,

I cast upon the world the echo of your light

Falling slowly, silently in ghostly pure beams

From the heavens above down to the world of man

For the lone poet’s heart to contemplate in dreams,

Millenia of wisdom condensed in a lifespan.

A never-ending dance of two eternal gods

Fated to never meet and never once embrace,

Each other to yearn for and forever to chase;

But I, sweet prince of day, hope, no matter the odds,

 And will keep hoping on and dancing like a fool

Offering you my soft light, my most precious jewel…
