when you see the moon

A Poem by honey

for distant lovers…

before there was breath, there was us -
two sparks tangled in the quiet dark,
born from the same burst of creation,
separated only so we could learn the ache of reunion.
across lifetimes, across light-years, i still feel your pull.
when you see the moon, i hope you think of me.

we learned to speak in echoes -
your laughter found me through the stars,
a sound the universe still hums in my chest.
even silence bends toward your name.
when you laugh with the moon, i hope you think of me.

i’ve seen you in dreams the color of twilight,
your body swaying with the silver wind,
dancing where the ocean meets the night -
as if the world itself were made from our remembering.
when you dance with the moon, i hope you think of me.

some nights i feel your whisper through the dark,
gentle as breath, sharp as longing.
i pour my soul into the sky and hope she carries it to you -
my hearts message, hidden within her glow.
when you whisper to the moon, i hope you think of me.

and when the stars forget their names,
and even time exhales its final breath,
i’ll still reach for you -
a tide drawn to its twin in the sky,
a promise etched in the shimmer of eternity.

and when you have no more words,
only the unsteady beats of your yearning heart,
when you cry to the moon, i hope she hears your plea.

when you see the moon, i hope you think of me…
