New Moon

I stand in the sunset
Where light once sat
now darkness takes my face

Pockmarked, cold and stark
Breathe and feel the dark

Stand in the midnight
Stand here with me

Stars
Like pinpricks in the cosmic fold

I wrap the dark; a cloak around me

My old blue companion
An ocean across and life

There is no darkness
There is no darkness, anywhere

My face is only in shadows
I wait for the sickle
So you can see me once more

Stand in the center
Stand in the center
Stand here with me
