Someone's Moon. Poem by M Ketchem

'Everyone has a moon, but there's one thing...
Not everyone meets them.
That doesn't mean they don't exist
It just means that they were separate.

That moon is someone who shines brightly after they meet their planet or star
Someone who can now find out who they are
It's a person who brings light and darkness
A person who blocks the negativity and sadness

Everyone has their own moon,
It's a person who maintains that gravity
A person who will regulate the schedule and block out what's to bright

A moon isn't one you spend your life arguing with, but someone who makes you stop.
It's someone who will block the overstimulation and anything else.
It's a person who brings peace, not anger.

That's what someone's moon is. Their perception of peace
Not something that's just limerick, but something that's deep
A feeling unknown till that person is found

When you find that relationship it's a balance,
Something that holds equivalent respect
Someone who views you the same as themselves
You are one in two without another thought.

This is something of balance, the moon and the star
A light that brings joy and the dark that blocks out the pain

The moon and star are on an equivalent scale
One that never sways or tips either direction

Neither is better nor either is worse.

The only thing there is that one simple force
One that keeps any peace up even in doubt

It's the force of gravity that keeps them there bound.'
