Runaway Moon

[[ This had to deal with the Moon I saw tonight. It hung very low close to the ground and while I was looking at it I wrote this poem. It looked like it was Running Away. I hope you enjoy!!]]

Runaway Moon

There's a Runaway Moon tonight
Hanging low tonight
So many nights
The moon would be my best friend

I would tell him everything about me
How my day was,
Who broke my heart that day,
Or just about random stuff

He'd always sit there quietly
Listen to everything I have to say
He'd always talk back to me too
And tell me that tomorrow would be a different day

Today at dusk I went to the park
And awaited for my best friend to arrive
As he came up
He hung low to the ground, seeing that I was crying

He asked me what was wrong,
And I replied that I was hurt badly that day
My grandmother has passed away
And I wanted to runaway with her to heaven

I told him
She left on the train early that morning
And left me behind
Never to return
Never to be hurt again by her family

He told me to climb up in his arms
And as I did
I could feel the comfortness
I was longing to feel for all these years

He clung to the ground for awhile
Holding a crying girl in his arms
Then he started floating towards the night sky
Towards the sky

He whispered
I'll be your train tonight
I'll runaway with you
I'll disappear with you tonight

We drifted high into the sky
And greeted the stars
Then we rose just a little higher
And disappeared in darkness

Never to return
Never to be seen again
I boarded the train
With the Runaway Moon
