The Moon

Tonight, like many nights, I am depressed, and when I am depressed I truly feel my musical calling...

But tonight I noticed something else, the moon...

Has anyone ever stopped to gaze upon it, and truly wonder at what it is...

From a technical perspective, its a rock that reflects sunlight, but what about emotionally

Wolves feel the call of the moon and howl to it as if it were a guide, but when I look at it I do not feel its call, instead I feel its loneliness..

how sad is it to be all alone in space with no task except to create the illusion of light at nighttime, how can something so beautiful make me want to weep...

Has anyone else gazed at it, and truly felt the sadness that comes with the moon? People symbolize the moon with love, but I do not feel that from the moon, love is happiness and togetherness, but what togetherness is there with the moon?

To me... the moon is the one piece of the universe that I can relate to, I know the sense of being alone, I know that I am only wanted when i serve my purpose for others, and am nothing but a shadow the rest of the time... useless except to promote others...

What does the moon symbolize to all of you?
