Some things were meant to last forever
But good things don't last for long
Just when you think the show is over
The chorus sings another song
Treasures lost into the ocean
Are found in dessert land
And things you can't let go of
Seem to slip right out your hand
Words never said, should have been
The moment's forever lost
A life time of unhappiness
Is a simple mistakes cost
Eyes can tell a story
But the heart can preach a tune
It's melody so sorrowful
It soars up to the moon
The moon knows many burdens
Each tear becomes a star
People wish upon misfortune
But never gets them very far
awesome

Another absolutely beautiful piece. I love it. So wonderfully heart felt. Gorgeous imagery and a beautifully melodic pace and rhyme scheme. Well done!
That was a beautiful poem... I, too, can relate to this poem.
I was first captured by the title of this piece, and only intended to skim through, but this poem has a delicate flow to it, and it held my attention. The last stanza wraps up the poem very smoothly. Very good, keep it up!
Wow I really love this. Nice imagery and great use of juxtaposition.
The ballad form is masterfully deployed, and the wisdom of the words resonates long after the first reading. This is one of the most magnificent poems on postpoems!
