We had those long nights,

with too many beginnings and never endings.

The moon hung high in the sky,

casting its glow upon me,

as if attempting to reveal my secrets.

Exposing all those corners filled with loaded feelings and tears that I wished to hide.

Shining its light on all those feelings I have for you.

Naked.

But when I gaze at you,

I find you revealing nothing in return.

So, I stand here alone,

the moon higher than ever,

and my heart on the edge of breaking once more.

I look and look, in vain.

You have nothing to reveal.

Only an empty shell,

disguised by those tempting lips and dreamy eyes.

But only I knew that the kiss I gave you that night would be my last.

No longer willing to stand exposed in front of you,

while you remained clothed.
