Challenge
moon/stars
write a poem about the moon or the stars.
There’s always something
about the moon
how it unravels the doubts
I live with in my mind
I’ve said I want you
with a closed mouth
and I’ve said love with you
makes sense
but it doesn’t
the stars in my sky
don’t align
at the sound of your name
you’ve distracted me from
the storms that sometimes haunt me
but loving you seems
as empty most days
as filling a cabinet with only air
and trying to convince myself
there are no empty spaces.
Empty spaces -{renata ferretti}
