Everyone is a little wiser when He’s in the sky
Everyone is a little deeper
A little more philosophical
As if their high school sociology lectures did stick
They waited somewhere
Buried under years of more immediate information
layers of dirt only He removes
My favorite conversations
The hardest conversations
The deepest conversations
They happen when He is in the sky
When He’s shining
It’s as if He carries the wisdom
As if He holds all the answers for the world
As if He chooses to hold onto them all day
As if He gives them only to those who wait
But that’s only if He likes you
Get on His bad side and you’ll know
You’ll know how the night never ends
You’ll know how loneliness feels
You’ll know the hurt
The pain
The fear
Because you get on His bad side
Well, He’s lonely too
So He shows you the night
Shows you the overthinking
Shows you the dark
Shows you what goes on in the dark
If He has to see it
He wants you to see it too
He wants you to see the things He can’t ever forget
He is wise
He has seen
He is the Moon.
