Home upon the moon

Contributed by lostinmyself on Monday, 30th May 2005 @ 02:38:00 PM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry



The moon had struck the earth again,
And it died beneath my feet,
Rivers dried in moments,
Consumed by fires heat.
Volcano's splurted metaphors,
And cows learned how to fly,
The world has changed once again,
And I really don't know why.

I watched the faces fade away,
Just melt into the ground,
And fossils turned and greeted me,
My new friends I had found.
They spoke to me in riddles,
As concrete roses bloomed,
And I found that I was wanting,
To live up on the moon.

The faces turned to stare at me,
Within their frozen beds,
No flesh and blood in front of me;
Only I was left.
The new friends they ignored me,
My heart was not their stone,
They jeered and laughed and booed me,
I was once again alone.

I watched my hope just fade away,
Just melt into the ground,
To the friends within the fossils,
The ones I thought I found.
I sung myself to nonsence,
But I found there was no room,
And I found that I was wanting,
To live up on the moon.

Well, please do move off to the moon, for I fear they do not have very good reception up there and we could not be the receipents of your beautiful heart and soul. Some of us take a while to find our niche in life, but philly, you will. Don't despair, my sweet girl. You will.

Philly...I'm proud of you.
I'm not really brave enough to write as honestly as you do. But I'm so glad that you are. Because...when you're that honest, you seriously can't go wrong. And...you haven't yet.
I love you. (no really, I do.)

Yeah, isn't it ironic how the sadness seems to bring out the exceptional poet in us.
This one has great flow and rhyme and I especially like the message here, sad tho it may be.

Wow, Phil... this is a powerful piece of work. All the imagery is simply stunning, and you made it work just right. Deep, eloquent and very heartfelt. You captured this feeling (a sad one, and one that I recognize) in a very meaningful way.

(I guess you could say I liked it!)
