THE MOON DOESN'T SHINE NO MORE


The Moon Doesn't Shine No More 

For the moon never beams, 
Without bringing me dark dreams, 
You hold me in a dance of your trans, 
Telling me what your love with bring  
Heartache and pains , 

Each year at midnight we gather around 
At the Eastern windows of ones broken  
Soul and that would be mine , 
The stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes 
That is wanting to save my life , 

The night-tide I cry to get out of your sight 
I love what is right in God's eyes  , 
I lie down by the side of the Sea hoping God  
Finds me , 

In the sepulcher there by the sea is me lost out 
Of hope with no love in my soul , 
In the eyes of you and I has died by the sounding sea , 
A dozen crimson roses falling from heaven for me  
As my body wash at sea .

Poetic Judy Lilly Emery

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
