Ode to the Moon

moon

I appear in the dark but radiate light, what am I?

I am the wakefulness of the spirit when truth descends

I am a memory of the past and a glimpse to the end

I wane and wax and show my whole self

Yet I crumble every turn, as the other sun melts

I am the beacon in the ocean, the eye of the night

I torment your heart, bring illusion to light

I’m blind but I see, my heart glows inside trees

A charmed chameleon in role

Playing every dreamer, every soul
