What has the moon seen?
Folder:
Which Do Not Belong what tragedies has the moon seen tonight?
pale ghost in the vast expanse
what tears on a pillow have been shed?
whose voices have uttered despairing sobs?
to the only mistress of the dark night
and the stars her children
when every time a life is ended
in hopelessness by the moon's light
a new one is born
what change has the moon bore witness to?
age old mother of the stars
what empires have risen and fallen?
what great lives have been snuffed out?
as the waning and waxing take their toll
with each star alive in darkness
every faint shimmering of the past
another life over
i don't know what to say because i can't find the words i loved it . nothing ic an come up with but that it was....simply sublime.
I have often ask this
question myself.
You've captured my questions
in your song. Good poem.
