it's useless to try to read the whispers in the wind

If she wanted you to know, she would've stayed a little longer and let you rest in her bliss

She may be comforting (like some), but she is fleeting (like most)

Moonlight Ballad

This poem was inspired by a special moment for a special friend.  It must have been towards the end of summer, and we were on different continents. He texts me that he is gazing out his window and onto the bustling street late into the evening. He is looking into the void of the sky while listening to music. His wandering mind then fixates on a window of the hotel across the street- he notices lights, dance, and love.  I have done my best to capture his raw emotions and expression into this poem. Enjoy <3

Let me tell you about that fleeting moment

when I felt an emotion

that I cannot describe.

LIGHT.

drowsy and switched on by that little flutter in your heart,

the shine glides across the space

till it has molded the world

around it into warmth.

DISTANCE.

far enough to be another world, yet just close enough to be real.

the warmth is out of reach now

but we’ll get there someday, soon, but

the metres between turn my sight blue.

BODIES.

his hands twirling her and her hands guiding him,

their movements spell out words and raw beauty.

so while the world falls deaf to my ears and

their shadows dance with them-

I hear echoes of laughter, clinking glass and…love.

HAPPINESS.

I feel it all at once, yet the words escape my mind before I can

make a sound to spit them out, I don’t understand

what this feeling is.

It’s a wish to see that happiness reflect in my life,

a wish to not fear the future.

So I, a boy with the world at my fingertips and

a cloud over my heart,

describe that fleeting moment

in an attempt to understand it.

“There are times I am bewildered by each mile I have traveled, each meal I have eaten, each person I have known, each room in which I have slept. As ordinary as it all appears, there are times when it is beyond my imagination.”

- The Third and Final Continent, Jhumpa Lahiri
