The Search For Contentment

Lonely...I sit waiting for night to fall in the sky

Hoping it is soon..so my duties can be fulfilled

Keeping company with my soulmates here...the stars

Stillness comes over the earth and all is calm

I sit wondering...what shall I be tonight?

Searching the earth for the answers of my being

Perhaps I should be full...for lovers everywhere

Maybe...only half or quarter of me is needed

Could I live with not being totally complete?

Thinking..yes..knowing it isn't to be like this forever

Or do I put my every effort into being whole?

This I ponder for a very long time

Asking myself...why is it people are a lot like me?

Not always being all that they can be

Still I wonder...what shall I be tonight?

As night falls nearer, my choice becomes harder to make

Tonight I feel like being complete...after all it is almost the end of the month

So be it...my decision is made...a full moon for lovers to enjoy

I so desire to be happy and content tonight...however...this leaves one question

Why is it I cannot be this way all the time?

Whole, happy, and most of all...content with myself

Maybe I feel as all of you feel?

Lost and alone at times...not complete or full

Lacking contentment, or perhaps just sad

I have been given a duty to fulfill

Just like everyone else in life

My duty is being the best moon I can possibly be...a full moon

Sharing my best qualities with others around me

We owe it to ourselves to be everything we can be

After all...you need me to be complete as much as I need you to be
