Soon

A full moon poised above the sea
Makes the face of heaven radiant
And brings to hearts that are apart
The poignant pensiveness of night
I blow out my candle but it is just as bright here;
I put on my coat but it is just as cold.
So I can only read my message to the moon
As I lay me down and long for dreams of you.

-Chang Chui-Ling
