    The Star Beside the Moon

     

    Lonely but not alone
    Skin of flesh and a heart of stone 
     As memories began to fade away
    I fall onto my knees begging them to stay
    I hear nothing but an echo from the past
    Forever repeating itself, something’s were meant to last
    And I know that distance will dies soon 
    When we finally realize we still sleep under the same moon
    Lost and then found, walked and then ran
    I forced you to fall into pieces so that no one can repair you...damn
    I knew my power, but how would I have known it was leaving
    There's no such thing as a heart that breaks even
    I need you to guard me and make me brighter
    I'm not beautiful but you illuminate me like a match to a lighter
    It’s like
    Destruction wanting doom
    Like a star beside the moon

    Nice use of comparisons. Think more on the musical. Keep up the good writing. A poet friend// RH Peat

    I like the last line "I'm not beautiful but you illuminate me a match to a lighter." For me the moon only becomes beautiful when there is a bright star beside it. Thumbs up...

    I think your poem was a little deep for someone so young. But I did enjoy it. Very deep.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
