Picture it & write challenge – Moon

I haven’t managed to join in with a Picture it and write challenge as my March writing schedule was packed full. I was delighted to find this image. If you want to join in you can find a link to ermiliablog and the challenge under the contributor button.

Moon

*

As a child

I would lie in bed,

Pull the curtains open

and stare at the bright moon

in the sky.

*

I used to tell all my

wishes and dreams

to the moon.

It would always listen.

*

The moon changed,

over time it

grew fuller.

Hanging peacefully in

velvet darkness

every night.

*

Absorbing more and

more of my

secrets

it grew,

bigger and bigger.

*

Empty

I found myself

able to sleep.
