Luna, carry me home

And so she hides behind the Sea,
     leaving the night to be lit by the stars,
and leaving my thoughts to rest alone.
     Her light fades and spreads, across the clouded waters,

As city lights appear - unexpected - in the west;
There, her last golden moment ends, Her
     journey complete.
Her luminescence lingers - just a moment longer -
     til in a breath -

All is dark
but for the city lights
reflecting the stars.
