Tonight I miss someone but don’t know who.
I am homesick but don’t want to go home.
Tonight is one of those nights that I roam
through the streets, out of breaths, a restless soul
synching her own heartbeat to the rhythm
of the pulsating stars. Tonight I fall
into the unknown space between two
seasons, the lonely cocoon of October.
Tonight is one of those nights that I lay
myself down under the full moon, waiting
silently and faithfully, until I
soar into bright light as a butterfly.
