gazing into the moon today
its essence glows with power of the sun
and its absorbing aura attracts mine eyes
drawn to its peaceful illumination
all but light surrounds me
darkness all around, filling this empty room
i see the moon and its light
but no light penetrates these thick windows and walls
trapped here in the darkness i can only see
the light on the outside
the light that i can not have
trapped in this tiny room, darker than night
shrinking, shrinking, growing ever smaller
closing in on me, my movements stop
trapped in this dark room now smaller than a box
what more can i do now, i cant even move
squeezing tighter and tighter i feel it ending
the box breaks open and i am free
this white light brighter than the sun
shed from the moon into mine eyes
its just not the same now
i yearned for it so long now
and now i have it
but theres nothing left to do
why did i crave it so?
i never knew the light,
as i staggered slowly towards it,
would drain my own light
and leave me again, alone in the dark,
to suffer once more
