cycles

as the moon wanes
ending one cycle
beginning the next
with the inevitability of astronomy

I remember all my beautiful choices
from this cycle
with joy
with glee at the freedom

the friends I have liked and loved
and spent time with
the time that has filled my life
with what I want and love

one short moon ago
I was much less crazy
than now
when I am sane

with love
for my life
saying no to love happens so often
it is nice when I can say yes!
