new moon


we’re in a new moon phase, love.

the darkest part of the month,
with nothing to guide the night
beside the pinprick stars.

now, gently, now is the time
to

write the love letter that 
hides in your heart and
hurts your bones,

sit naked in the cool dark,
letting your skin soak in
the language of the night,

whisper to those faraway stars 
the things you’ll never admit

not even
to 
yourself
