By Way of the Amber Moon

~ By Way of the Amber Moon ~

If color was a language
and my greys whispered to the moon
were that she answered
in shades of amber

oh, to feel her healing essence
radiate through my well-crafted cocoon 
to the core of my heart
(and dreams I dare not utter)
long tethered, by history,
dormant in the shadows

The moon, with a simple brush stroke
of warm hues, could wash over
my well of nostalgic reverie
that I might discover
a rebirth of trust

newly emboldened
my heart could fly
to breathe its truth once more.
