Cry to the Moon

by Romancing the Darker Side   May 21, 2007


She cries to the wind
The moon
The stars
Her rusted razor falls back down
Slicing through the scarred skin

Her lost memories
And lovers
And predictions
Have all been lost into the vortex
Her mind is blank as ever

The life she lives is simple:
Cleaning
Serving
She lives for the master
And she is nothing but a slave

Tonight, it is her and her world
Her pain
Her fear
They all mix into one
And sculpt her life together

She sits on the grass
Bleeding
Whimpering
There is no crying
As she loses herself in the pain

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The inspiration from this poem comes from the song, "Me and the Moon" by Something Corporate. Excellent song!

    I didnt find this poem as good as your previous two. But still i liked the structure of it. The secound and third line being so short, only one or two words while the rest of the poem lines are noticably longer. An intresting structure. Your alliteration of; "rusted razor" gives the impression this razor is quite old. This tells me that self harm has been in this girl's life for quite a while. This line; "Slicing through the scarred skin" youve got this 'S' sound going on, it really emphasises what she is doing and i can kinda hear the little sound it makes. The meotion was quite clear andi could relate to this poem a little bit. Im sure many people can. A good read. Keep writing! Once more i urge you to to use punctuation in your work. xx

    Excellent poem, too. "Tonight, it is her and her world
    Her pain
    Her fear
    They all mix into one
    And sculpt her life together"
    ~my favorite stanza.
    5/5
