Full moon tonight
The night air
Mild
Light and dark
Are bound
Moon high above me
Pouring energy
Into my body
Lovers come
Lovers go
And lovers come
again
Said goodbye to my old lover today
Wished him well on the journey
Shed a tear
For all that was
For all that was not
Closure of the past
The children
Sweet and spiritual
Beings of great power
They know things
About the universe
That i do not
Wise and still
In their smallness
I worry that
I too
Will get lost on the path
Swept along
With the moment
Into
Underworlds of my mind
Entertaining
My two lovers
In the one night
Saying goodbye to another
What has become of me?
Back to the wild days
But not even back
Now in my wild days
Creative days
Days were i am
so many things
In any given moment
I look
At the past
and i see
So many people
I have left behind but
New people have arrived
And some from the past
Reemerged
Goodbye
to my old dreams
for they are dead
Buried in the graveyard
Where other dead dreams lye
New days
New nights
Without my old dream
laying beside me
I stay awake
at night
For i have no need for sleep
Right now
The full moon is rising
I ask tonight for guidance
I ask for strength
Courage
I ask to be protected
Great Spirit
Mother Earth
All my relations
Hear my prayer tonight
As the moon rises
I need to feel you
Now
My heart
Is the wounded
A soldier
A warrior
A great fighter
For the human spirit
The place i need to heal
Repairing the cruelty
Inflicted by my own blade
Sharp cuts
Blunt attacks
without discretion
Subtle knives
That slowly inflict
the ruin upon my heart
I continue
To breathe
In
And
Out
Taking in
Whatever
I can
To keep me sane
The full moon
Is rising
