THE MOON PRAYS TO ME

By Mystique



Sometimes, I wonder if the moon prays to me


Sometimes I wonder if she looks down on me

Looking up and gasps my name

Like she’s never seen me before.

I wonder if she looks for me on lonely nights

When the air is cold and you can see your breath


Sometimes, I wonder if the moon thinks I have phases,

If on nights when my head is turned and only my profile is shown

She gets a tightness in her chest

Because she misses a part of me

Maybe the indescribable fulness of my smile

Maybe, she counts down the days

Until she can see my full face


Sometimes I wonder if she lays out her crystals

To charge in my energy

Tells the stars to look at my majesty

Whispers about me to the sun

Points me out to asteroids

On days when the nights are bright


Sometimes I wonder if the moon prays to me
