I fell amongst the stars

I always tried shooting for the moon
expecting some brilliant prize
or maybe even, without the hype
i looked on for some time
at the lovely crescent in the sky
blanketed by dark perfection
and couldn't tear my glare from it
and her undying lesson
of how i always aimed for her
lonely white facade
situating kindness
in some way i never made
fiscal opportunities
cut so deep, they scarred
so even when i missed the moon
i fell amongst the stars
