This is on the inspiration taken from Rose’s poem “I Watch the Moon”

Thanks Rose.

Once again the same night, the same room, the same bed and the same me awaken, lying slant on my soft pillow, as soft as the lap of the beloved, but still there is no sleep in my eyes, thinking about you, you are not with me.  I look at the sky, stare hard, looking for you among the stars.  They seem to singing, but even their lullaby brings no sleep in my eyes.  I look at the moon, but it is you, not the moon, yes it’s you, your face, your eyes your lips.  I close my eyes as to hide you in them.  You are calling me, I am clearly hearing your voice. I feel the touch of your delicate lips on mine, this is the longing, this is the missing, missing of the beloved.  I hear the humming of your song. It is in my ears, no, it is in my heart.  The song is your, but the music, the beat is of my heart.  This is love, love where I belong. I once again open my eyes and look at the moon, you are still there, and I see tears in your eyes.  Why? Come to me I am waiting for you………….No, your tears are now rolling down on your flowery blushed cheek,  you can’t come from all the vastness of sky, then wait for me I’ll come to you.  You are now smiling, love powered your lips to generate this beautiful smile, your smile emitting light which delights me too.  It seems everything is singing, but it will quiet down soon as the first light on the horizon announces the rising of sun and then the moon will become light-less, as you will be gone from it.   There will be night again, and there will be moon again, I’ll be awaken again to see the light……….to see you.  It’ll go on and on till we’ll unite forever.
