The Moon

Wherever you go I want you to know one thing

I will never gaze at the moon and not think of you

My mind will caress the memory of your eyes

And how they shine brighter then the

infinite stars painting the night.

 

And I’ll hope that a part of you,

No mater how small,

From time to time thinks of me too.

 

But I’m not a child anymore

I know how those things go

You will be another’s

You will hold a different body

your eyes will shine for someone else

and I will probably find another too

but right now as I sit beneath the moon

my tears fall deeply

only for you.

This is beautiful. It is sad, but hopeful. Sometimes it can really help knowing that wherever we are, when we look at the moon, we see the same moon that everyone, including our love, is seeing.

A tender heartfelt sincerity to this piece. The first stanza is graceful and delicate, even after the crush of heart ache, yet it remains hopeful. Letting go is never easy, but with memories so rich, so full, there is a gentle peace here. Thank You for sharing!!

That was so beautiful. Seriously, the words were simple, but captivated so much. Probably one of my favorite poems I've ever read. Realistic, romantic, heartbreaking, touching. Amazing write. :)
