Does this poem provoke any feelings or thoughts in you?

Lonely Thoughts on a Cool Night Under the Stars

The moon is a sliver

like it has sliced through the sky

a tiny wound

and one wonders

why there is no bleeding,

why there is no blood.

    It makes me feel lonely ... and it makes me expect something.

    Why is there no blood - intriguing question.

    If a wound is small - it will not bleed. However - a fast, quick slice - can produce a very deep cut - that will not immediately bleed. Kind of like - the flesh is in shock. The scythe-like blade of the moon - could deliver such a cut ♥

    it made me feel quiet

    i feel like im on a beach

    the moon is very clear in my mind

    the poem makes me think

    of all the people who feel kinda numb

    and the title makes me think of lonely ppl

    who just need a helping hand

    i think, there's no bleeding because ppl who are subjected to emotional pain, at one point, become almost immune to it, so that, things that would hurt a 'normal' person would be simply shrugged off because of the wall that they build i guess

    for me, the tone of this poem was very somber

    cool work alobar :)

    you have a great number of solid cloth right here. i might, regardless of if, group the suitable products into separate poems or a minimum of into separated words. working example, your tittle is "10 mg Romance" so how approximately organizing into 10 paragraphs or words for that tittle that are useful statements. The detrimental ideas you're having may be a separate poem.

    Oh, you are wrong. That sliver of a moon and all other moons have bled poets for eternity. Bleeding their words out for the loves of their lives...

    Nicely written. Few words, grand statement!

    it evokes nice imagery but i certainly don't wonder why the sky doesn't bleed. perhaps an extra stanza would give this poem more of a point? it feels like it is supposed to be symbolic of something but whatever it is it isn't coming through.

    It makes me think of people who cut themselves

    because there is so much pain inside

    they need to see it expressed outwardly as blood

    to validate their pain.

    The speaker in this pen is in pain, and doesn't understand why there is no outward manifestation of it....I understand and this is beautifully expressed. Well done.
