But I'll Be Gone (Poem)

Tonight

Is the full moon.

Look how it glistens,

How it shines,

How its light touches all.

Watch the clouds

As they pass it by.

Soak it all up,

Feel its light,

Touch the stars.

This full moon,

We're apart.

No celestial being

Has protested;

The moon still shines.

Once upon a time,

Our eyes could meet,

Our hands could touch,

Our lips could kiss.

But this is no fairytale.

Tonight

Is the full moon.

Maybe you'll think of me,

Want to see me,

And share one more moondance.
