Lullaby

the moon climbs the top of my window and lays perched with one eye open
and i stare back as its equal
being stirred by this music
i sway like the ocean after a storm
finding my balance again
under my moon

my head is swimming with nostalgia
pressing forward into these unsteady winds
i feel my inner calm seep through the shore
and i feel embraced by the feeling

you are making me disobey gravity
and i can not find my place
my feet slide on the ground
the sway of this beat
only long enough for my head to reach the clouds

and kiss the moon goodnight
i remind him to watch you
to keep you safe
and fill you with my love

goodnight moon
