Moon Drunk Beast

Hello there, 

Moon drunk beast

Howling at the moon. 

Are you scared to hear 

Your answers, too?

Why you must keep

Your mind,

Your mere existence 

Fortified,

Surrounded by a concrete wall?

Are you scared to hear the answer?

Or are you scared that you already

Know it?

Hello there. 

Moon drunk beast.

You and I aren't too unalike.

Heart-ache and distance 

has shaped our wisdom,

Our souls.

Hello there,

Moon drunk beast, 

Howling at the moon.

The moon hears your despair. 

Her light gleams on your body,

Yet she does not reply. 

Instead her light is a reminder

Of all her unanswered questions,

And unspoken lies. 

Hello there, 

Moon drunk beast, 

The moon can see your anguish,

Yet she turns her head 

And lets the sky grow dark. 

Denying you her light. 

Hello there,

Moon drunk beast.

You won't get the answer

That you so desperately seek.

The heart-break and pain

Doesn't hold a message for you.

There isn't always a lesson, 

Or answer,

To justify how things 

Have been.

I'm still trying to figure out stanza lengths :)
