"Find You A Lover Who Loves The Moon. They Will Know How To Love You When You Are Not So Full." - Unknown.
I am not so full right now. I wax and I wane, and today I am waning. As the days pass there is less and less of me to go around. I am simply fading.
However, I don't fret. Why would I? I disappear for a few seasons and like the faithful moon, I am full again. It's a cycle. I learned to forgive it at a young age. Resenting does nothing but burn holes in my soul. So I accept, adapt, and move through the phases of my life.
The emo phase, the hippie phase, the identity crisis phase. I move through them with flair and with grace. Tastefully. Lovingly. Kindly. Despite my many facets, I always return whole and true to myself. I more then like the moon, I am the moon.
I reflect your light in the darkness. I allow you to see the parts of yourself that blind you during the day. I permit you the pleasure of seeing your way through your darkest fears. I am the moon.
You can tell me your secrets. I will keep them safe for you. None will hear them but you and I. The night is sacred for understanding the most intimate and shadowy parts of ourselves. The moon keeps our secrets well hidden and kisses them goodnight. She keeps them sacred and full of love.
Like the moon, and by being the moon, I am full of craters. I am full of hollow holes. Millions of years of crashing and fighting will do that to an ancient soul like mine. But that's okay. I like anything else, accept it and move on. I continue to orbit, unphased by any phase other than my own.
Love me, for I am the moon. I will teach you, it's okay to love deeply, it's okay to look deeper within your soul, it's okay to go through phases, and it's okay to have craters. We all change. We all grow. We all evolve. We all have wounds.
Embrace them, for I am the moon. For you are the galaxy.
