Moon

She’s my favorite everything. No one knows me like the four walls’ of my hearts poetry and minds rationality. No one knows me like the Moon does.

Ever stop and just look up, maybe not up, but just around? We live in a bubble titled “me” population “1” sometimes “3” but in the end still a dot in this unimaginably never ending beautiful Universe. Most wander without a clue of the other, while we all have a book and all wonder for…

For the first time in a long time I cry happy tears. Tears consumed with pride, and self accomplishment. My Soul is happy. As I stood in front of the sea, everything stilled as I spoke.
