the setting

the setting

the silver bird carried her away

but she still flew into my dreams

although the dream dimmed

like the light at sunset

and soon i realized her sun would never rise again

on my side of the world,

and i was left to wonder 

if we still saw the same moon

when night reminded us

of each other.

It's always strange i think, when something happens in life that makes us ponder.
We look up to the sky, as if the answers are written in text just for us.
Why not me thinks, gives us hope.

It's a big world, but not so big that we lose sight of love.
Lovely poem Jacob.

We think that loved ones are sometimes too far away until we realize we all see the same moon at night.

Thud...this is gorgeous...it's that moon that I remember too, how massive it was that night that I let go, or at least thought I did, but we never really let go do we?

[jacob erin-cilberto]

not ever...thank you, Corset.
