The Mockery of the Stars

The moon sits in silence, ever so cold.
So many feelings are left untold.

The mocking stars have deserted the moon.
Leaving it standing alone, at night and even noon.

And yet the moon remains so strong.
Bravely standing up all day long.

So fearless, mighty and beautifully bright.
Causing people to stand in "awe" at the sight.

I wish I had the strength to stand so tall.
To never let my problems cause me to fall.

But my mind is confused, and simply aches.
From each and every thought it makes.

Like the moon, those stars mock me as well.
Causing me to cry, crawling into my shell.

The stars so beautifully "happy" and bright.
Cause me pain, my tears I am trying to fight.

I merely wish those beautiful stars would care.
Instead they leave me with a blank vacant stare.

The clouds just simply continue to roll on by.
While I just sit here in sadness and steadily cry.

Now I have so many tears invading my eyes.
And forever and always those stars I will despise.

Because instead of helping, they mock me.
Imprisoning my mind, leaving no where to flee.

Why can't I be so happy like they are?
Being away from here, up so amazingly far.

My mind, my heart, my soul still sadly cries.
Forever and always, those stars I'll despise.
