Wrestle me from this moonlight mist
bound beneath a gentle sky, as it
calls to me in mockery
the quiet bliss of these stars tonight;
which brandish me to world.
And I wish not now nor evermore to be
the soul who knew before
what it’s own life did not know; but
was shown to be by this serenity
the fading notes of a restive soul.
Author notes
A dedication to a love that cannot be described, but is always known.
To you.

A love wrapped in the song of a tear-stained moon... Exquisite, melancholic, and a heart-wrenching Author's Note. I know of this, it ails me everyday. You wrote an elegant piece, without using all that 'frilly poetry', and still provoke the heart to sigh. Wonderful dedication. I love this. Thank you for sharing with us. Sincerely enchanted,
Midnight's child, and the shadow prince's lost lover,
~S.
