Talking To The Moon Poem by Thabitha Marakalala

Talking to the moon

Last night I found myself
talking to the moon
The conversation was all about you
I asked it if you knew
What you really do to me
Every time I see your face
My heart beats out of pace

I stutter when I speak
Try to stand but my knees go weak
I pray you don't see the blush on my cheek
It's clear you the one that my heart seek
This feeling I can't deny
And it grows even more as days go by

I found myself whispering to the stars
Together we can leave from here to mars
Build our own castle
Days and nights we will cuddle
You will be my king
And I your Queen
We will create the strongest bond ever seen
It's ohk if you don't believe in dreams
But my dream came true the day I saw you

The way your smile just beams
And how your eyes haunt my dreams
I heard the sound of your tender voice and my heart made its choice
I realised then that this is more than just a crush
When I found myself talking to the moon
I knew than that this is really love
Wishing you felt the same way too...
