Sad Poems

Words drip like tears from my pen.
Emotions fall like shadows in moonlight.
Poetry pours in broken hearts.
“Why are your poems so sad?” You ask.

The moon sits in silence absorbing all
The stars watch above it seeing time
The wind wails in treetops
on sleepless nights.

I think you meant to ask
Why am I so sad?

Ask the wind why it wails.
Ask the stars what they know.
Ask the moon what it has seen.
