The Moon and I

Nightfall oh nightfall how I love thee

The sounds of the crickets soothes me

The sounds of water rushing from the ever flowing waterfall

Leads me to the beauty of the night, the beauty who I love

The beauty of which I call the moon

Entrapped in the beautiful light that makes my skin look as if it glows

I find comfort in the different phases or cycles it goes through

The cycles and phases remind  me of the transition from childhood to adulthood

The moon reminds me of how we are ever changing and always moving 

I long to be up there with the moon to just stay next to it for all eternity

But alas I only carry the moon across the night sky 

I long to not just be Selene the Moon Goddess 

I long to be Selene, One with the Moon 

Astronomy always seemed like a good fit gives me an excuse to watch the moon longer

Thoughts of going in to what humans call space; to finally touch the moon would be euphoric

Hopefully, I can pass the torch to the Goddess of the Hunt, Artemis 

So finally I can be free and be one with my love, the ever-glowing Moon.
