I swear, <br />Tonight I saw tears running down from the Moon. <br />You might think I am crazy, <br />Or that I daydream hazy in the middle of the night. <br />No Sir! <br />I swear, I caught a glimpse of those silver drops <br />Go down the scorched cheeks of that sleeping beauty. <br />I felt her pain grow big like a threatening black hole. <br />I saw her sadness spread all over the Milky Way. <br />For she can't be close to the one she longs for. <br />The Moon I mean. <br />She is the secret lover of the Sun. <br />Didn't you know? <br />Shush, don't pry. <br />You'll make the Earth jealous.<br /><br />Besa Dede<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/tears-from-the-moon/
