Tonight I saw the moon for the first time in a while
It was still a bright and shining pearl
The leaves were inky black lace, fossilized in the night sky.
There's a car across the street
Its lights make two yellow paths on the wet ground
A crowd of three strolls past
Laughing too loudly in the still darkness.
My blankets are a pile of blue stripes on my bed
The humming of the night rolls through my window.
My thoughts are full of you tonight, (aren't they every night?)
and I am thinking of your legs and your cheekbones
How they are nice
to look at
The pictures hanging on my wall are of people I love
And people I know
But you aren't there (you don't have to be)
because I know that if we were together
We would shine brighter than a thousand Suns
