I had my eyes closed, and Fade Into You was the song I was singing along to.
I spun around a few times in this triangle of light streaming in from the window.
And I was pretending it was moonlight, because why couldn’t it be?
It was night, and it was dark, and it was quiet, so I could very well be twirling around in a triangle of moonlight dancing its way in to say hello.
Or something like that.
But then I heard the dryer go off, and I remembered that the moon wasn’t out,
that it was just the porch light that someone had forgotten to turn off,
that I had to go inside where the lights were even brighter,
and that I had laundry to unload.
