Have You Ever Felt The Moon Cry?

“I have worn the night”

I have worn the night.

I’ve watched Selene

drive her chariot

across the edge of heaven

and seen Hemera’s dying breath

breathe out the stars.

I have borne the cloak that Nyx

had placed across my heart

and lost myself in Hypnos’ arms

as I danced with Thanatos,

for I have worn the night.

So, if I ask you anything,

let me ask you this -

Have you ever seen the stars

and wondered why

that all you ever wished for

has only served to bite?

Have you ever felt the moon cry

Whilst wearing well the night?
