Thinking of Moon ⏾

 Showed up to the terrace tonight,

It was dark, but things weren’t alright.
I looked up at the sky soon,
Stars were there, but not the moon.

The moon used to surprise me with a different face,
Never knew one day it would just take away all its grace.
Tears ran down my cheeks, and my eyes shined with light,
Stars were bright, but the moon wasn’t there that night.

I feared looking back at the blue sky afterwards,
Every time I try to go to the terrace, it hurts.
There were nights when the moon showed up, but I didn’t get to see,
It used to get hidden sometimes in the clouds or behind a tall tree.

I long to see it every morning, night, and even noon,
I spend all day, thinking of my moon.
