Tears in the Moonlight (Poem #16)

My soul withers away at night
When there is but one source of light
Coming from the dark skies above
As beautiful as a single, lovely white dove
My heart is broken in a million pieces
The reason for me to live ceases...to exist
Because of this frightening pain

My heart is what you have slain

I run from you and your words

As the tears within my eyes disperse

The moon is full and bright

While the tears show nothing but fright

The fear of losing you is great
I thought meeting you had been fate

Yet here I am upon the ground

Sniffling and gasping, crying without a sound
No one is around to see me cry
Daggers to my heart, I shall die
These tears are but meant for no one's sight
As I shed the tears in the moonlight
