Glow Stars

Glow Stars

A Poem by April Child
"

It's old, no-one left me!

"

What to do at  2am

when your love

has left you.

 

Stick glow stars on

the ceiling whilst

humming “fly me

to the moon”

 

Lie back looking

at the night sky

and cry…

I really hate overly long poetry, and precise, short poetry like this makes me smile. I love how you use your words!! :DDD

Thumbs up :)

Relatable! I feel like these could even be my words. It has my heart pounding now, from beginning to end, I find something from my own heart. Your words have just inspired me...beautiful piece.

Love it simple and short with a bitter-sweet bitterness of a self-proclaimed love, when there is nothing left of what you yearn for and everything turns on you, you make up the words of your tale and create a night sky you can curse, part of yourself to become something else, simple words that hold a delicious weight of sorrow and desire, of yearning for something so far off no bright beam of light could tear down the despair within. Colloquial language juxtaposed with a meaningful depth.
