july phases









on waxing crescent
you returned
the fireworks
launched just for you
I exploded too

first quarter
waxing gibbous
over too soon

full blood moon
I bled too
unexpectedly
when my heart broke
and my belly ached

waning gibbous
last quarter
felt like a good thing
felt love
felt loved

then off in the east
waning crescent
crisp in the dull wafer
of a new dawn

into that crescent
you flew

to a fertile crescent
far away

my fertile crescent
longs for you

rising darkness
August new moon
my heart is grieving
I dream of leaving
I only want to
wax and wane
along with you
