Moon Shimmers(108)

My heart today feels old and frail,

As solace I do seek.

But one bright light shines ever on,

Within my soul and heart,

And gives me hope to carry on,

Though our paths may part.

You will always be there,

My anchors and my loves,

My family, my sisters dear,

Wherever I may rove.



As her voice rang out into the night, Delilah and I built a fire, and we sat there, watching the moon rise, holding onto our past even as we knew that, come the dawn, we would return to our homes and move onward into the future. We accepted the paths the Hags of Fate set before us. And that was right and true. Because all life evolves, and even though we were no longer living together, we still had battles to fight, and dreams to live, and love to embrace.
