No one slept last night
No one ?
Even people who went to bed
Sorry, but how do you know that?
Because of the full moon
As it happens, its full tonight
It keeps people like us awake
Without the moon the world is nothing
I would not say that
You are wrong
The tides
The nocturnal illuminations
The eclipses
I was in Cornwall in 1999
It was spectacular
I was in Cornwall in 1999
I saw the eclipse
It was so crowded
Cars were parked in fields
I experienced a complete joy
And a complete unhappiness at the same time
My then boyfriend took me to a nudist beach
As it was less crowded
Yes I remember seeing you there
How would you remember me after all these years
I remember the small birthmark on your left thigh
And you had Gerard Philipe tattooed on you lower back
You must have loved me even then
I did
Do you love me now
I do
You will have to share me with Gerard
I am aware of that
I am in love with you
I am in love with your unusual beauty
And remember that without beauty the world is nothing
