I Only Ever Dream the Moon

From a particular chat in the "We are all mad here" group that I liked far too much.

I only ever dream the moon,

or a scene with its own presence.

Like the preset light over acting stages;

illuminating a talk with a calf embodiment,

or shadows not really present...

with them, its more of a random rehearsal.

While awake,

It's a sort of a hypnotic trance.

Just barely able to push myself from where I stand.

Even while observing it as a water reflection

and backtracking to avoid the flood.

Our one-of-a-kind, curious anomaly

that affects the tides of our own blood.

Hopefully then, you'll find the Moon again!

It would be a larger brightness, held between your hands.

This is beautiful and I love how it flows so smoothly. My favorite line is "illuminating a talk with a calf embodiment". I also love the imagery I recieve with, "tide of our own blood". Well done. :)

Writing it was unique, compared to my other attempts. Thank you, I'm glad you like it. ^^

I like this poem, you use a very unique vocabulary I don't see often in poems, and this gives strength to your words, it will make people want to read it more than once.

That is a really nice thing to say to someone, thank you :)
Coming from you, it means even more, since I personally believe you have a really great capacity for writing unique and captivating metaphors.
