The promise of the night

The sky I see has cleared
but is not devoid of stars
and not devoid of clouds
which will I see more of in the end?

The love I have is the moon
cold distant but bright
to see you like this
words have no place among these

such divinity in the night sky
such darkness but in it beauty
and to gaze on it makes my heart swell
and see the stars shine once more

tell me goddess of the moon
will you descend with the night
or maybe for once and forever
never wane, but be with me
