Moonlight and shadows
in endless depths of darkness
my dreams ebb and flow
I finally find myself alone
it was our time to fall
like soft spring petals
in warm winds
summer ash
upon the meadows
autumn’s bright flames
and winter’s kiss
all fading away into echoes
like moonlight in the dawning
or the quiet whispers of the grass
and a deep ache rises from within
your shadow
shrouded in moonlight
slowly disappearing
into the night
