Moon Man

jaxolotlPoems

I sit on the moon. 

While everyone is down on Earth. 

I look down upon them and watch their lives. 

I watch them fall in love. 

I watch them smile. 

I watch them run and laugh. 

And I watch their stories end. 

 

I watch them cheer with friends. 

I watch them weep and mourn for the dead. 

I watch them drink and celebrate. 

I watch them fight and scream. 

And I watch them destroy everything. 

 

I sit on the moon.

While everyone is down on Earth. 

I watch them live their lives. 

While I exist.

  • Caring dove

    Sounds a very lonely place to be .. sad writing tho I like it .

  • Poetic Licence

    A feeling familiar to many, isolated from the world as it passes them by, a touching write nicely expressed

  • sorenbarrett

    Separation from the rest of the world allows one to see their errors and destruction. Nicely penned.
