Moon Tears

By acidcrys

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Long ago when the night sky held only the moon A young maiden wandered amongst the ancient ruins. Her skin was a milky white, her eyes the shade of the ocean, and she possessed a velvet soft voice. She sang of her sorrowful story of long lost love, causing the moon to leave its place in the sky above. Before the maiden the moon released a sympathetic tear, putting it in the maidens hand where it turned into a crystal sphere. Astounded by the beauty and the way such a thing became of existence, she realized it was too perfect to keep, returning it with all resistance. Touched by the maidens selflessness, the moon took its tear, shattered it into a thousand pieces like a broken mirror, and then threw all the little moon tears into the night sky; Where for an eternity those moon tears will lie.this is a very very old one.. that I wrote for my friend who requested it.. he had an obsession with the moon.. and I have one with Irish type fairy tales.. so I threw this together.. I don't really like it all that much.. but I want to make it better.. just not sure how.. Its supposed to be how Stars were created...
