Paper Moon



 


wore my heart
on your sleeve

in eyes the sun
shone, renewed

you stole the diamonds
sparkling in the sky

handed them to me
with open arms

now only a paper moon
sits high on the horizon

while we wait

    I love your title =) My favorite parts were definitely "In eyes the sun/shone, renewed/you stole the diamonds/sparkling in the sky." The use of "diamonds" was very appropriate. Well done!

    I loved the play ...

    between sun and moon. It always works wonders ...

    Beautifully poemed.

    Love
