The Moon

I asked the moon to show meÂ
How to sit among the starsÂ
Feeling swamped in darknessÂ
While tending wounds and scarsÂ
I asked the moon the teach me
To help me learn to heal
To stop running from the darkness
To stop, to sit and feel
I asked the moon to help me
To allow my light to growÂ
To stop hiding in the shadowsÂ
To take my light and let it show
I asked the moon to lead me
Down a path of truth and loveÂ
To see the light in othersÂ
Shining from aboveÂ
I asked the moon to remind meÂ
To dance among the treesÂ
To always believe in magicÂ
To move with grace and easeÂ
I asked the moon to guide me
To the centre of my heartÂ
To step into my power
With each night a brand new start
The moon then softly whisperedÂ
As the sun began to riseÂ
Enjoy each day and don’t forgetÂ
To be grateful to be aliveÂ
