Moon-Eye Valentine

Gasping for words because
The experience isn't enough
Take this sunlight which seems
Always pulling the wool
Over our eager eyes 
So we don't notice that
Other light behind it
Except what the moon transmits
Sending down reinforcements
To besieged lovers and trees 
But if this light we see
Made these eyes to see it
That other light must also
Yield up its deeper sight
It may even come tonight
