Dark sky is painted with the colors of turned off stars
Clouds move around in the sky- constantly changing
Hiding flickers of light- seeming smaller than a fingerprint
Breeze wanders aimlessly reaching out to treetops
Picking up a leaf for flight or dropping it back down
Jam-packed with directions- not knowing where to go
Silver crescent shines alone in a darkened sky
Self conscious of her flaws- part of her hides away
Only aware of how striking the other lights are
Soft gentle air- whispers of friendship and loyalty
Betray the tough exterior threatening to crack
From far away no one can see anything wrong- no tears
Moody and pmsing the moon is seen different each night
Switching from confident and full to a sliver of her former self
Rotating visions so no one can sense a pattern and figure her out
More lights shine tonight portraying the smiles- meaningful gifts
For a second everything crashes to a standstill- staying true to self
Dust settles to the ground- grey sketched clouds breathe for a moment
