i.moon child
he was the boy who grew up from the sand with the salt of the sea air in his lungs; golden, bright, and wild.
but i was the girl who was born in a crater on the moon; cold, distant, and alone.
we were worlds apart. his complexion was a coconut brown; kissed by the sun he’d been under all of his life. mine was as white as the face of a porcelain doll’s; kissed by nothing but the darkness of night and the stars within it.
from my view, i could always see him on the beach. one time i watched him, curiousity peaked and my heart fluttered, my eyes grew wide—i leaned over the edge.
could he see the world i lived in from below? and if so, what was my world like to him? i wondered if he even knew of my existence to begin with.
but in the flicker of a beat, i met his eyes. sparkling emerald pools full of hope; i could swim in them forever. pulling the last bits of my conscious in, deeper and deeper—and that’s when i saw it.
his soul; i was staring into his eyes and saw the beauty of a withered soul.
and i fell.
i fell hard.
