Moon Walk

I decided to follow the moon tonight
And walked where its light led me
We moved into secret alleys
We toured through mirth streets
We knocked at iron doors and glass ones too
We smiled at the dancing waves and the slipping sands
We climbed high hills and played hide and seek
We trailed dense forests and searched shadows
It was a long beautiful walk and then the moon brought me home
We looked at each other while the mirror looked on
We returned its gaze in togetherness and saw it reflect us
And through us reflected the secrets, the mirth, the iron, the glass
The waters and the sands, the hills and the forests and our colors and smiles
Until the moonlight faded and the moon vanished
Now I look on and the mirror looks blurred
Maybe the reflections just cracked…
