Literature
Moon of my Heart
When I reflect on her, I think of the Moon.
So alive and filled with magic,
never too bright, or too dim,
she hangs in my night's sky like a beacon,
showing me the truth of myself,
To gaze upon her is to dream endlessly of her touch,
yet remain a million stars apart.
She is neither here, nor there,
flitting effortlessly across my heart,
like a wayward ship upon a glass ocean.
And I will love her
till the End

L'amour non partage : Unrequited Love
L’amour non partagé - Unrequited Love (A poem I wrote en Français and English)
Mon problème est simple,
Je suis fou d’amour avec toi,
Mais,
Tu ne m’aimes pas.
Je t’adore,
Je te veux,
J’ai besoin de toi.
Tu es l’amour de ma vie,
Et,
Je veux être avec toi pour toujours.
Je sais que je ne devrais pas gâcher ma vie en attendant pour que tu m’aimes,
Et,
Je sais que la vie continue sans toi,
Mais,
Je peux à peine vivre sans toi,
Et,
Je sais que tu ne vas jamais m’aimer,
Et,
Je sais que tu ne peux jamais m’aimer,
Mais,
J’ai besoin de tu ess

i’m me
till friday
i’m free
and then on friday
i’ll return to this prison
that i used to call home —
dance behind the chains sneaking around my heart
squeezing, till i bleed happy tears
when i see your hazel eyes again
it’s nothing but stars under a dimly lit room
brighter than the aquamarine and diamonds that hang above my chest
that i clutch and finger;
a weak grip on a reality slipping
dangerously into fantasy; here
you touch here i crave
and our fingers and lips are dancing with our feet
till midnight, it’s blue and black that hide the flowers
blossoming into fulfilment when we’re c

Elaboration:
This goes out to Authors using unnecessary excess words, be it through poetry (especially),
short stories, and novels. I have emphasized on this common issue before with the quote,
"The goal in writing is to say so much in so little, not so little in so much," but this line sums it
even better with that 'enough said' quality I was going for, in fact, something I always go for.
With the above in mind this is the little trick on how many of the already-famous Authors
(notably our ancestors) penned some of the greatest, most remarkable words of all time.
This is because what they wrote have what’s called a ‘quotable' quality, a quality rarely
exceeding no more than two lines to get their point across, even in their longer works.
That’s the point here; if you’re going to write long or short works make each line memorable
by striving to achieve that ‘quotable’ quality to make viewers wish your work was their own.
In a TL;DR (too long; didn't read) society, this is what everyone should practice when writing.
If what you're trying to say fails to keep the viewer's attention then you have failed! Try again.
Enjoy.
