What is he thinking right now? I wonder, always unable to figure out what's going on in that head of his. Especially when he's being so out of character, like now, taking pleasure in something that even I, the most poetic and nature-minded person I know, am finding mundane.

Maybe he sees himself as the moon, and those nighttime clouds as the moments in his life; moments that we don't wish to remember. Maybe he's seeing that, no matter how dark those moments are for the moon, it still comes out the other side, just as bright as it was before.

Maybe he's not that deep. But damn, does he look handsome in the moonlight.

"There it goes again," he says, as another formidable-looking cloud blankets the moon in darkness. "Damn, that's a big one too," he says of the cloud, "We won't see the moon again for a while."

I smile, keeping my eyes on him.

"No, not for a while."

... but it will be missed dearly 'til I do.
