Discovering The Moon

 

At night in the darkness
I lay barely sleeping.
Longing for the night to
End, and bring the
Warmth of the sun
Onto my face.

At night all my fears
Tend to creep up and
Become ten times what
They are in the day.
Shadows become more
Than just shadows.

The darkness that
Swallows me up,
begs for me to
Forgive.
The darkness,
It creates my
Madness.

I shiver as I take
Steps into the night.
Something glows..
Something pale and
silver.
What could this be,
I wonder?
And all at once I look
Up and discover the
Moon.
