The Moon Won’t Tell

Posted on by Penny Wilson Writes

The moon won’t tell.

It does not hear my pleas.

You’re not to be found.

I’m down on my knees.

I’ve risked and plotted

For eyes that look like yours.

 I heard you in a laugh.

On a distant shore.

Did I hear you whisper?

Was it you in the crowd?

My heart knows better.

Just my cry, out loud.

There is only one you.

There is only one me.

Two souls, still searching,

Trying to believe.
