knight night

i am not looking

to extinguish a fire

i am looking

to slay a dragon

*

i am the moon

always waving goodbye

yet never leaving

circling life

yet inhabitable

and smiling a sun

behind

never ending darkness

*

i am hanging

onto your

lasting words

while you move toward

hanging onto lasting

*

don’t give me a shield

that hides me in shade

grab me a sword

that shines with the sun

*

it makes me cry

that the first person

to cry in a relationship

wins the argument

*

if you want advice

focus on your want of if
