Poems

So I've never really written much poetry, but I've decided to give it a shot recently. Any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated !

I wrote this one while experimenting with blank verse (it's one of my first, so if it sucks, that's why lol).

A Thousand Moons


On a long stretch of road, a vehicle
So hastily flies by, forgetting all
Of what had once surrounded it, it learns
To accept the visage of this new world

The vehicle drives past the world forgot
Into the new, great land it drives with speed
The grass becomes a glorious green blur
It's not alive, but charmingly dead now

As the old sun begins to sink, it's soul
Looks to the sky and sees a thousand moons
All smiling blankly down upon it, yes
In their reflection, there is nothing, yes

On a long stretch of road, a vehicle
Is beginning to halt to a dead stop
It yearns for something more, something that was
Once held so dearly, but now is forgot
