Daughter of the planet

Earth won.
Like it won every single soul it held thus far
Like every parent beaming with joy for a newborn
Like every plant winning its first bloom.

To smile unto silence

Unto a space void of other life
A smile unacknowledged, unreturned,
Unknown to anyone else, unasked for. 
Yet one that I understand the most.
For the chance to smile such a smile, 
I thank my all encompassing solitude.

“Which classic was written
counting words?”

What do you miss?

Moonlight pours in through the wooden window,

the night follows the lit path inside, they sit

on my closed eyelids, I sleep, peacefully, there.

Then, I am asleep like a baby, here.
