A Figure in the Winter

By EKPoet

Lights
In the distance,
Empty arms,
Seperation

A hard winter's lesson
In the dead of night,
The bone white moon
Lost

Across the expanse of skies,
The silent stars distant,
Almost gone,
Forgotten

The pale mountains,
The shimmering plains,
The clouds,
All mirages

You
Walking away
From me

Over the last doorstep,
And into the very darkness,

A figure in the winter
On the moon
