the moon, the woman

The wind screams my names

while de cave echoes

my heart aches

questions flow

unknowingly I go

What am I?

I asked

the wind flew

letting me unrest

"You're the moon"

I hear

from far around I saw

a cloud coming soon

"Am I?"

I said

the cloud

Oh, the cloud

beautifully standing

Walked to me

with small words

I hear softly

A name unknown

My ears feel

to the ground, I felt

the pain

of my heart

"Woman"

it said

"Woman?"

I replied

"Yes"

I heard

"Woman"

I felt

"You're the moon"

my heart stopped

"Why am I?"

I asked

"You're the moon"

It repeated

"Why?"

"Am I?"

"You are!"

so, I'm the moon

so, I fly around

so, that's me

so, I sat

one question I asked

"What's a woman?"

"You!"

it murmured

"Wasn't I the moon?"

"You are"

so, a woman is me

the moon is me

am I both?

am I one?

I am the moon

I am a woman

soon I noticed

through my eyes of gold

what I was meant to know

they are the same

and I am one
