Today, after a long while, I stood on the balcony's ledge,
The moon greeted me kindly, asking how I felt on the edge.
I paused, and then she inquired about the girl I once adored,
I confessed she's gone, and the silence deepened, leaving me floored.
Feeling responsible, I blamed myself for her departure,
The moon consoled, suggesting it's not solely my failure.
I admitted I struggled to understand her, feeling goofy and unsure,
The moon nodded understandingly, offering a gentle cure.
Deciding to work on myself, to overcome my fears and strife,
The moon questioned if it's for her or for the improvement of my life.
I clarified it's for myself, but she's the inspiration I admire,
The moon smiled, acknowledging my journey to aspire higher.
Admitting I still miss the moments we shared,
The moon advised cherishing them, showing she cared.
Feeling trapped in a cycle of failure, unable to break free,
The moon encouraged me to try new paths, embracing uncertainty.
I expressed how her advice seems simple, yet challenging to pursue,
The moon agreed, but urged me to take a step, however few.
Acknowledging her consistent presence, even as the night grows late,
I pondered if she too would someday depart, my heart's fate.
I asked her to tell me before leaving, unlike the girl from before,
The moon promised she wouldn't leave without closing the door.
I proposed, "Let's close our twilight chat, keep it concealed,"
She replied, "But if she inquires, I'll unveil all revealed."
I agreed, "Alright, but keep silent; I'll await her return,"
She assured, "As you wish, dear, now rest, worries adjourn."
He slept, unaware she missed him too,
I wished to tell him, but she made me promise true.
It's sad, both wanting to talk but too shy,
One day they'll learn, letting go of pride is the best try.
If you need a listening ear, come to your balcony's space,
I'll safeguard your secrets, in this serene place.
