Ode to the Moon

A glint in the eye of your observers
They look at your soft curves, melt in your
delicate light.
We are your children as you capture us 
Your seductive light, sweeping us off our feet
Come out in the night and you make us come alive.
                             ....
In the day, we may be tired. Worried, manic.
We may be rushing around like worker bees not caring
about the details.

But once the night falls, we become vampires
Hungry for the moonlight
Passion fills our bodies, a shiver rushes over us.
Calming.
We are apart of the night.
You are within us as much as we are within ourselves.
We come alive. Our pupils dilated, our breath fast, heart rapid.
Dumdumdum dumdumdum.

While the children sleep safely in their beds, we come out.
We emerge devouring the night.
Awaken us with your moonlight.
