New Moon Beckoning

New Moon Beckoning

I'm going to be back again
A more honest person
Caring and warm
Sorry for this
Apology
Of an existence

  I have been
Treated so good
Treated so bad
Life has had its way with me
But

Life is the ultimate friend
Pushing you in the back
To infinity
Felling you through mighty scoops
Of emptiness
To get a rise out of you

Make you risk
Your precious
Toes
dangling coy over
Shallow puddles
Acting out your
Contrived joy.
And petulant ease
Danger just a
Shortlived tease.

Now I'm going to take that
Leap
I swear to god
I will love myself more
Than I do now
While I creep
Flat on my belly
Brushing past nightmarish webs
Of confused entanglements
No t knowing
My own weight
Or the pull
Of my earthly
Attraction

As angel I
Fall
Rise like Phoenix
This river of dreams
Of many depths
Will absorb
Me
The final sleep
Coils inside
Another chance
At
Awakening
New
Glorious me.

I am all the water your  glass
Bubble holds
And I'm unquenched fire
Drowning in the stream
I'm the shadow
Walking after my master
It's midnight
And new moon
Beckoning.
Let's part

Let's go back.
Do this one more time.
