I can’t stop
thinking about the moonlight
the night you kissed me
outside of that random bar
in Great Neck
you turned my whole world upside down
right way up
forbidden love has a way of tasting
sweeter than it should
I glanced up
at the clock
at the train station
knowing their arms
were already moving me
further away from you
until you were just gone
and you became
a distant memory
I sometimes recall
in the moonlight
I bought my first watch
a Bulova
like the one at that train station
where we became lovers
in love
every time with a kiss
picking me up
sending me off
and their arms are still taking me somewhere
my heart will send you a postcard once I get there
I hope we are both smiling
when we arrive
