the moon is rising
Just a bit earlier, someone told me, —
I'm beautiful as the moon is rising,
and if you want to, I'll stand by you.
The fact that one who flattered me
was already 100 and some years old,
didn't hurt me with such petty deets,
contrariwise, stole a smile from me.

And I know it saw me clearly. I swear.
Also, because it wasn't even escorted.
Although it's true, it indeed stumbled
about three times, but I put all of these
on the part of my dazzling beauty π€ͺ,
a beauty like a musical arrangement
or, at times, just like a tune's lyrics do.
