The Quiet Moon

The Moon is quiet tonight

Silently, she covets
A ray of Sun
That escapes her
To dance among the stars.

The Moon is quiet tonight

A jealous lover, she watches
Him secretly, admires
His every movement
His every song.

Her silence is
A lethargic lizard
At dawn.

The Moon is quiet tonight

Her stubborn forehead
Burns with longing
For his kiss to visit.

Impatiently, she awaits
His nocturnal appearances
Across the sky

While in dreams she chases
The warmth of his light.

The Moon is quiet tonight

The power of her desire
Moves the ocean
Churns the waves.

She drinks him from a distance
In the thirst of her gaze.

The Moon is quiet tonight

She remains hidden
Conceals her pride
From the Sun she lost.
