dear full moonā
give me a chapter to wait for
an ending worth reading
and turning the page for
*
make whatās disjointed and wrong
feel right.
knit the pieces together
this bright, sacred night
*
I donāt ask for much
but I do want myself.
without that, nothing I find
seems to help
*
and waiting on signs
isnāt good for your health.
on this night, I ask you
please, make it make senseā
*
the story I've walked through
without the full picture
just praying on fate
with her grace to come through
*
cast your light on my life
and, in the glow of beginnings,
Iāll put down my arms
and give thanks for you

Choosing Yourself Over the Chase
Don't waste time waiting for someone to grow up. When someone requires you to exhaust yourself explaining how to love themāwithout them proactively seeking to understand or reflectāthe likely outcome is mutual harm.

Authorās Advice
If you wouldāve asked me 20 years ago did I know Iād become a writer and an author, I wouldāve said ānope, aināt happeningā. As fate would have it I did become an author and I can honestly say Iām loving it so far. It really does feel good to be a writer. Iāve learned a lot on this journey and I feel like with even me being as new to this world as I am, thereās some wisdom I need to share with every other aspiring author.

Nice
Oh this is beautiful and I'm not a fan of moon poetry. Well I am and I'm not lol. I loved how open and vulnerable this was, very personal sounding. Great work.
Lovely and inspiring verse. I have linked from my review here. Hope that's okay. https://exclusiveofferhub.life/writers/still-looking-for-ideas-for-your-under-a-spell-entry%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
All that Iverson walked through without the full picture. That line resonated so deeply with me! Loved your poem!
Last night's full moon certainly was one to drop the arms & for which to give thanks.
Definitely feeling this poem and this moon, too.
You have a true talent for writing. I must say that this was a very well-written piece that I also enjoyed a lot.š¤¦āāļøā¤š
