Moonrise

As the sky began to fade,
Into its dark dreamy depths,
We sat with the fireflies,
In the long green grasses,
Together,
You and me,
We watched the sun fall,
The clouds fade to dark plumes,
And the stars twinkle into sight,
While they set their gaze upon us,
We looked to the moon,
Braving the descent up into the night,
Reflecting the hidden light of her lost love,
And lighting up the darkness,
We sat,
You and me,
With the stars and the fireflies,
Lit up with the showering stare,
Of the ascending moon.
