Obituary Sky

by Maple Tree   Sep 15, 2016


Another night;

falls upon whispering shadows,

begging for my silence to break.

Covered within a somber rainfall,

these tears remain hidden

and I'm mysteriously speechless....

The moon has died tonight

    Wow Andrea what a beautifully written yet sad piece.
    Sometimes we need to speak to help us get along in life, other times its best to keep quiet and just cry when we think nobody is listening.

    All the best, Em

    Hello Andrea,

    I love your ability to extrapolate from a life observations and then remold this into a poem that says it all without saying it.

    There are people, often friends and family that wonder (and worry too) at a person's strength. Strength of composure under extreme mental strain.

    There's no need for concern - these feelings are funnelled in just the right way.

    Well done and take care,

    Michael
