Dearest Moon, You who wear silver wisdom upon your skin, You who pull the tides and cradle the secrets of women I write to you with reverence,

I am tired in ways the sun can never warm, bones humming like streetlights that never turn off. They call it resilience and strength
The wet November asphalt is waiting The streetlight looks at it skeptically Its naïve optimism is grating When you have seen what autumn nights can be
Selene, your eyes admire me in my sleep Your gaze upon me from beyond my dreams Your love for me in truth is ever deep Through dedication never to decline

I speak in rhymes and mysteries Because that’s how I think My brain shittles riddles because it titillates my neurons It is how I do my best to get along in this world

Your Shadow’s Echo I met your shadow on the brick; it kept your measured stride, a midnight twin that knew the tricks of leaving at my side.

I don’t write poems I am possessed by the them I speak for those that are otherwise silent I speak for the nonviolent I write as witness to those hemmed in on all sides
A chime, a buzz, a flash of light, A lure that cuts throughout the night. It's not a call, it's not a text, It's just the algorithm's flex.

I want to feel normal again Not to go back where we began But the ephemeral euphoric place between The then and now The only question is
You are my love, I hold so dear... I love you so, always and forever my darling boy... my precious boy, I see you clear mine and always
