The Moon And The Sun Poem by Lesa MRK

You are the moon,
That glows,
In the window of my soul.
You are the sun,
That shines,
In the mirror of my heart.

The moon and the sun are one,
Though the two have never met.
I've known them both so well-
I've tried but I can't forget.

In daylight rays of sun find me;
They penetrate this heart,
Seeping into tender places,
Giving warmth to frozen spaces.

Late at night, I gaze at the moon,
Through a shadow of cloth,
And I pray you'll hear my silent plea-
Hope my prayers are not lost.

Then I will gaze at soft starlight,
Which is my gift from both moon and sun.
Although they do not know it,
The two are forever one.
