In the Moonbeam

I looked out on the horizon of the night.
The moon shown brightly,
As moonbeams struck the Earth below.
I called out your name
As if you were there,
Waiting for me,
I desperately searched,
To catch a glimpse
Of the love you used to have
For me.
You were not there.
I only saw shadows dancing
In the beams of what had been.
A distant likeness,
Now,
Gone.
I attempted to hold
those shadows
But they only fell through my fingers,
Displaying only memories
Of time gone by.
I continued to wait,
Hoping,
Living,
Breathing,
But in the end,
You were not there,
And I had to move on,
Alone.
