Image for the poem The Somber Moon Breaks Every Heart

The Somber Moon Breaks Every Heart

His eyes
stared deep into the nothing,
I looked past the abyss
knowing it was there
denying the truth
because I recognized
the moment
was about
to die

something ironic crept in
we both felt it
there, in the back
just waiting
hanging out
watching
absorbing,
everything
we were

the silver that shone
was really ash
that sparkled as the moon
wept for what has
and will be lost,
time took over
everything changed
or faded
whatever happened
it
was
all
gone
