Kim V. Poetry

When the moon is high
Tonight,
I hope you look up at her
And think of me.

And when the brightest
Star,
Shoots across the sky,
I bid you,
Make a wish,
For I’ll be there.

I’ll come to you,
And fight for you.

Your battles will become my own.
Your pain, will become mine.

I don’t want you to cry anymore.
I don’t want you to be alone.

Because I know what you keep
Inside,
The mask with which you hide behind.

And I love you,
Not in-spite of it.
But, because I’m just like you.

I remember,
On the night of my heart’s
Execution,
Our hidden monsters
Called to one another other,
Because we were not afraid
Of each other’s dark.

So I’ll wait for you.
Just like I did, then.

I’ll sit right here in the moonlight,
Waiting for your wish upon on a star.

And then you’ll see, my love.

Just how much your shadows
Mean to me.

And how you made me feel
Human again.
