Shining bright in the farthest night,

Distant attempt at dissidence.

Sweet moon, keep me in your light – oh don’t take flight!

I don’t love you but I need you.

Sleeping now, please do keep

Mine in your mind.

I might shiver; I might wiggle

Might cry … Might call out “Fie!”

You don’t need to respond!

Just keep reflecting in my pond.


The author's comments:

This poem is about walking through your house and seeing all the memories you've made throughout your life. It's about how attached you've grown to it and how much it pains you to move on from a part of what made you who you are (your childhood home).
