Tragedy in the Skies
The starless night sleeps
Only the moon dares to stir
Searching and weeping
Waves silently crash
The waves try and comfort it
The moon is alone
Searching every night
Yearning to find its true love
Banned love forever
The sun shines so bright
Illuminating all life
Seeking a lost flame
But there comes a time
Breaking dawn and at twilight
Separate horizons
Going to the ends
The ends of the earth searching
Trapped in a time zone
Happily they’re found
Soon to be fading away
In the night or day
This war’s not over
All is lost but hope remains
The end’s beginning
The process of writing this:
All week I was troubled on what to do for my post. I wanted to do something meaningful and heart warming. I didn’t want to post someone else’s work and comment why I “liked it.” Finally Friday night I stayed up all night thinking… But of course procrastinated while in the process… I eventually fell asleep and had the most coolest/weirdest dreams ever!
It was about these two people who fell in love, but the father of the girl (who was a wizard… Just to let you know) locked her in a tower. But of course the tower didn’t stop the boy from getting to her. That angered the father/wizard. He was so infuriated he casted both of them up into the sky, turning his daughter into the moon and the boy into the sun.
The father thought that would separate them forever (and it did), but every sunrise and sunset the moon and the sun see each other.
(So technically it didn’t separate them forever.)
After thinking about ways to tell their tragic love story,I thought a Haiku format would be cool. So that’s how made this blog post, and what this blog post means to me!
It’s like a myth, isn’t it? Wonderful use of personification…beautifully told story.
