Loneliness / Reflection

Loneliness / Reflection

Was it for the moon
   that I dressed up,
      combed out my hair?

Tonight, he is dancing
   with the lake
      instead.

By the window,
   swaying gently,
      I put on the blues.

Close my eyes, feel
   the absence of hands
      on my hips.

As is often the case, I couldn’t decide on a title. For now, I’ve just gone ahead and used both of them. Why not?
