Moonlight

by

Thomas Granger

You may seem ordinary but you're not, that's how you are
A tiny bit of temper with a twist
Some may say too much of anything maybe a bit far
They should have said, right before we kissed

Now too late, I should have seen it coming from the start
Too bad I am too slow to catch the bus
I realize I am the reason keeping them apart
Them I'm meaning you and I and us

My confusion being that which is unsettled with my mind
I don't know which way to turn you loose
Angered deep inside I am the only one who'll find
With my shattered feelings, any use

They flop and fall so lifelessly onto the dusty trail
No bother goes toward them once they're gone
The only possibility being that I will fail
That time has come and passed just like the dawn

Coming from reflected sunlight, peering silent through the trees
The moon, it wrestles with the morning sky
That feeling that I get when I am begging you to please
Not to let this fragile Loving die

NEXT?
Why don't you look at Your Own Keeper
