The Sun's Failing Doom

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Jul 22, 2006


Heaven blazes our eyes,
We stand still in sacrifice,
Autumn sings her lullaby,
We take it in as Heaven cries.

The sun sings a mournful tune,
He shines over butterfully tombs.
Darkness arises with the coming moon;
He's the reason for the sun's failing doom.

The stars gather around in surprise,
They watch aghast as the sun quickly hides,
They watch closely as the moon comes to defy,
Witnessing silently as the burning sun dies.

    I love. Love. Love. This poem. I hate nature poems though for some reason. I only like a VERY select few. Like yours. You managed to relate it to nature but not overwhelm it like alot of people do by using all these nature words to tie there already based nature poem more on nature. Your wording choices are lovely. Great Job. I absolutly adore this poem.

    You describe sunset as something tragic, it's odd but in a good way.
    I'm not sure of the rhyming, it seemed a tad forced.
    I liked the second stanza the most but I don't understand the second line. What does "butterfully" mean?
    Some good descriptions overall.
