Description I am cloaked with starlight,
bathed in tears,
and shining like the moon,
not like the sun.

Not like the sun,
because my light is
for and of you,
O Best Beloved!
I cannot shine
when you are gone.

I am the moon,
hidden in the brightness
of trillions of stars.
I see only you, love,
and reflect your light.

I am not the sun.
You are.
I am but the moon,
and I will follow your light.

First your comment in the descriptive box.  Rudyard Kipling (who is not me).  lol


Anyway, I like your poem, it's very touching.
