Oh moonlight,
shine upon me.
I’ve been swallowed by shadows
once again.
I’m drowning in the darkness
and I don’t know how to swim.
Send me a net of stars,
pull me back into your light.
I’ve lost the glow within me,
and need a bit of yours.
Perhaps if you pin a bit of starlight,
on my clothes
and in my hair,
I’ll glow enough for you to find me,
anytime I get lost again.
Thanks for checking out my poetry here on vocal. Feel free to leave me a like, a tip or subscribe, thanks for your support!
