Moon light.

by Samie   Sep 19, 2010


Beneath the moon light, the fire flies sparkle and everything seems so flawless.
The wind gently blows around me.
I stand so still in this moment,
thoughts of everything flow through my head,
its a war inside my body.
but on the outside everything seems so calm.
a mosquito flies by my ear,
i swat it away slowly.
its the first time i have moved since i walked to this meadow.
I watch as a duck lightly lands in the water,
such a simple movement can seem so beautiful.

I make my way down to the river side,
tripping on almost every step,
because my mind seems to be outside my body,
I'm not even pay attention to what I'm doing,
Though its like walking to my spot is programmed through out myself,
i don't need to know what I'm doing,
which is good because i feel so numb,
finally i find my rock along side the river,
i sit down,
pull my legs to my chest,
close my eyes,
and my mind starts to race,
my emotions are mixing together,
I lose track of where i am,
of who i am.

I feel like my heart has been blind folded,
I have lost all senses
behind this blind fold I can picture a star shining brightly,
lighting my way,
then when hope floated up,
darkness filled my vision,
and again i was left with the disappointment i knew all to well,
but then i saw this tiny light in a corner.

As i come back to reality, i noticed a boat along side the river,
tied to the tree a few feet from me,
and then i saw a beam of light that i could only imagine was a flash light,
that star i have pictured must of been inspired by the flash light shining through the dark.

I sit still where i am,
to numb to even Begin to think of to move away, or hide,
i cant even hear anything,
i feel like I'm lost to the world,
maybe they just wont see me,
i feel invisible.

I glance down at the water,
though i cant even see what is there,
if there was anything,
its dark, and the trees are hiding a lot of the moons light,
but then all the sudden the water shines up at me,
slowly i turn my head,
without even really noticing what i was doing,
my eye brow raised in disbelieve when i finally clicked into who it was,
when i finally could tune into the words they where speaking.

Their body movements spelled out what they wanted to say,
though in this state of numbing pain,
i couldn't react.

Without even a word,
they both slid down the river bank,
and curled up on a rock with me,
not a word was spoken for a while,
but with the thought of my two best friends by my side,
gave me more comfort then anything else could,
because just the fact that they knew something was wrong,
that they knew where to find me,
with the feeling they give off,
and the fact that they knew they didn't need to say a word,
is enough to easy everything ..
Why? Because there isn't anything greater then someone who cares.
