As I Follow the Moon

Brushed with the fleeting feathers of your wings I bleed.
Abandoned, my savior,
on your flight to spare another.
The stain of my clotless tear, ripe,
shimmer for wind-chapped canyons.
Retreat to swallow the
careless or the careful,
with faultful preconditions of my faux callous design.
Your voice, a glamourous ghost
whispering hideous truths
as I follow the moon over the mountains,
releasing fireflies in your wake.
