By Jami Pepe
Like the boastful crescent moon,
that sails the star stricken sky
She begins her journey,
through time and Test
Orbiting something greater than herself
Trapped against her will
Slowly moving away but still attracted
She creates waves of sin
and seasons of forgiveness
One side is dark
the other light
but not the source,
Only a reflection of the one more important
One day she will be full,
by an illusion of this reflection
Never truly satisfied,
with the things of this world
Scars of craters pierce her soul
Never disappearing
No wind or water to wash them away
Pain will fade as memories remain
During a time of dreaming
She becomes more visible to herself
Idealized in every way
An escape from truth and reality
The journey will never end
Her time of Test is a second in eternity
Yet the most important second of her fate
