Sunrise Upon The Moon

-Sunrise Upon The Moon-
by Keaton Foster


Twisted
Sinister
Looking back
Upon earth
Down upon
Those behind
Darkness comes
An evading light
Burning
Through the sky
Ripping it wide
Sunrise
Upon the moon
Happening never
Relentless
Is this endeavor
I brought myself here
An escape
Of all that was there
Now in that place
And not in this one
Is where I wish to be
In madness
Do I still dream
Eternal I now sleep
Many prayed for Heaven
While I prayed for this
The lord of darkness
Answered
I was sure that he
Was not listening
But be assured
He was
There is no life here
Just an abundance
Of deepening despair
An amount
That could never be fair
I’ll pay for my choices
The good book was wrong
There are some sins
Just a few
That cannot
Or should it be said
Will not be forgiven
The darkness is my master
My present home
Less my skin and bones
Is up here upon
The dark side of nowhere
It is where I’ll always be
Not because this is hell
But rather this is
My own personal escape
What I imagined
Hell would be
Indeed
Never has my
Imagination failed
Sunrise
Upon the moon
Hidden out of way
Never to be seen
By the likes of another day
The darkness will always be
With my choices I’ll exist
In this place I’ll reside
Not bound by time
Not sworn my humankind
In this realm of madness
I’ll further be in sadness
Such a thing is tragic
There was a time
Long before here and now
That I had a real chance
A will to decide for myself
And I
No other
Threw that chance away
Thus deciding such a fate
In my mind this was hell
And this man’s mind
Knows no bounds
Sunrise
Upon the moon
Never will it be true
Instead darkness
And doubt
Will be all around…
