nocturnal.

thedustdancestoo:

we creatures of the night,

we children of stardust,

drawn out

like moths to the moon;

to explore the oceans

of mist and shadow

that linger about,

to dance

in the wet grass

with naked feet,

warm,

alive.

yes,

we were alive,

we inhaled the night

and savored the taste

of it

on our lips

and tongues

and deep down

in the caverns of our lungs,

we lived

and breathed

while the rest of them

could only dream.
