Moonlight

I walk in moonlight,

Far away from you,

I stumble and fall and you let me go,

Who am I?

I implore,

I ask,

I long to know,

What is this sensation that I feel running through my bones?

The darkness sings to me

And I hear the sound of boots stumbling on pebbles

But when I look up there's nothing there.

Through the shadows I hear a long drawn out sigh,

A breath that calls to me as the headlight passes me by.

My fingers are like small threads of string

I shiver

They shiver too.
