Vale of Tears

Lunar, you are the one who persuaded me to post these on my blog. I hope I retain my modesty and don't seem to self centred.

Vale of Tears

 Earth rises over the horizon as I float

Like gold dust floating on the breeze

Hovering over the lunar landscape.

I merge with the ether, tendrils of mist spiralling

Towards the rounded ocean in the sky.

I weep throughout the night

Staring at the never changing sky

Black as pitch I feel the madness

That always follows Earthrise.

I long for a friend

As I hover round my vale of tears

A single soul, separated from paradise

And lost amidst the tranquil moon.

The dull grey craters

Punctuate my limbo

An Elemental spirit

Being leeched into the dreary sky

A dark despondent dawn

Rises amongst the barren wastes

At the edge of humanity

And the final frontier.

A quiver of blue

Searches for a friend

As the tears cascade like liquid diamond

In the perpetual flow                       

Of captivity.
