The Moon has no Balloons

aDarkerMind

the moon has no balloons now the counted days

raising seas to bate the spinning crop

of mans mankind of quiet seminar.

 

for all of what is worth to legends lost

 the comet for a thousand eyes that breathe

to follow sleep as one where thunder lies.

 

each turn of pen on the globes uncharted skies

words as frail as skin on a sunken face

tracing hand-to-root to the hidden door.

 

to the solid base of void where fate betrays

strangers lost in pockets less deserving you and I

let not a heart be twinned with winters tales.

 

with heart of rook that stares no feathers down

let no stone turn it's vengance on a thought.

the moon has no balloons

now the counted days

still follow sleep

while hides the troll of insignificance;

    Wow magnificent, and in honour of my plight, probably the kindest act anyone could have done for me today, I'm not alone and i know it, many thanks to you dear Melvin, and may this beautiful poem get all its fame. i would hope the moon of balloons pops and what was inside that balloon showers every troll and every weak and jealous writer of words with the means to extinguish the way in which they work at making others feel worthless. kudos and truly out of a moments of misery you and I have marvelous work to show. Thank you thank you. ❤️
