Tears From The Moon Poem by Besa Dede

Tears From The Moon

Rating: 4.3


I swear,
Tonight I saw tears running down from the Moon.
You might think I am crazy,
Or that I daydream hazy in the middle of the night.
No Sir!
I swear, I caught a glimpse of those silver drops
Go down the scorched cheeks of that sleeping beauty.
I felt her pain grow big like a threatening black hole.
I saw her sadness spread all over the Milky Way.
For she can't be close to the one she longs for.
The Moon I mean.
She is the secret lover of the Sun.
Didn't you know?
Shush, don't pry.
You'll make the Earth jealous.

Nice work! I love it and would like to share my similar work.(also another one A LOVE SONG BY THE STAR) Eclipse Their hug is too quick for the moon to bind Her shy love to the sun’s glowing mind Just because they both always find People down there are watching behind.
