Bitter moon, bow your head
and weep with me tonight
Stretch your fingers 'cross the sky
Cradle me in your light
I've stared into a midnight pond
abhorred unwelcomed sight
Strangers eyes reflecting back
Imprisoned by their plight
Futility has found a home
a passions desperate fight
To win a heart that has been won
by someone else this night
Lifting arms in grief to bear
I cry with all my might
Bitter moon, bow your head
weep with me tonight

What an interesting poem you write. I enjoyed thinking about this one.

The title pulled me in and the poem lacked nothing either!!  Sometimes the moon is a joyous thing almost seeming to celebrate your love and happiness with you.  Other times he is a companion in your darkest hour.
Beautiful work here hon..
