The Moon


I run from the moon.
As with you and I, embraced
a night that ended too soon.

It hangs there in the sky
like a half-lit motel sign flashing

it is a recurrent reminder
of what is no more.

I endure its taunt so cruelly proud
except for an occasional night
when mercy sends a cloud.

I keep running but always above
the night sky calls to me
and I remember the love.

My memories may fade and dim
but the moon and I
will never forget him.
