Brilliant Moon

A Nonet Breakup Poem

By Cindy CalderPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

Brilliant moon high in the endless sky

Give me strength this night to pursue

The dreams he stole, by and by.

Help me to start anew -

Enjoy love's sweet high,

Not dismal views

Of love’s lies

While I

Cry.
