Moon and I

by Stargirl   Apr 25, 2014


Only now
Have I realized
The parallels between
The moon and me
Both possess uneven exteriors
The moon has craters
While I have scars
On some days
Both feel like revealing only
A part of ourselves
Quarter, half, full
All dressed up, casual, barefaced
But most of all
Both cast light
Despite the darkness
Of the night sky
And of life

    I love the layout of this poem. And although I am not a fan of unpunctuated work, it didn't seem to bother me with this piece as much as it does usually with others.

    I really liked the message here, and the scenery that you created, you connected emotions and nature very well. I always feel the moon is a good tool to use in writing, we can always find ways to connect ourselves to it, or to connect the moon to something in our life.

    Really great job here!

      Thank you so much. This means a lot. I'm going to try punctuating poems next time. :)

    Aww this is beautiful, the comparisons you've drawn up are flawlessly worded :)

    There are some dark tones throughout the poem but it ends on an uplifting note. I love it haha :)
