Lonely Nights

I’m looking up at the night sky

So calm and quiet

Bright crescent moon in plain sight

As thoughts go through my mind

I put up a fight and place them aside

Try to relax and forget the past

As lonely this time may seem

Nights like these

Will always have a special meaning to me

As I embrace the serenity and abundance

Chill wind hits my skin and goosebumps form

I sit a while longer and soak it all in

Before I leave

I look back at the moon and stars

As they stare back

They know I’ll return

Until then

Goodnight my sweet friend
