“Go slowly, my lovely moon, go slowly.” Khaled Hosseini (The Kite Runner)
Moon Tide
When the moon fills your eyes
and the night shadows draw long,
then we will breathe as one,
bathed in the light
that hides in your dreams
and lives in your skin,
as tide that washes over until
we have danced into each other.
