The stars are fading, the shadows almost broken
The window is pale with a distant light.
Disarmed by beauty, I make the moon my shield
Seeking reflections in the twice-touched water.

"Twice-touched water".
Great line.
(your verse evoked another verse in my mind: "blue, blue windows behind the stars/yellow moon on the rise")
been a while... missing the words.
A lovely collection of lines, that.
