A Poem by Sarah McKeever Hitt
As the moon shines blue in your window
awaking you from delusional slumber
and after the momentary panic passes,
you think of me.
As pangs of loss from the past revisit
tearing through your wall of resolution
showing you what you don't cop to during daylight,
you see my face.
As the sound of her dreaming sneaks in
reminding you that you are not alone
and your chosen road does not lead to me
I stay on your mind.
As you think "This was over years ago,
Wounds were healed by time and vows taken"
you close your eyes to escape the truth of night.
But I am still there.
As you wish in secrecy that I come back
filling that space that only fits my form
clarifying all the blurry aspects of your life
I remain the girl who almost was.
