What would the Moon do?
What would the moon do if it were not caught irrevocably in your orbit?
Resigned to exist ever in your periphery, circling and supporting yet unable to touch.
If it were not both illuminated by your light, and obliterated by it?
What would the moon do if it could break free from your grasp and go off carving its own path?
It’s influence gone you would be lost; yet its love goes unrequited.
What would the moon do?
Stay forever forlorn or let you wobble and fall while it made like a star shooting off to some new place.
