Moon Hope

• Artist: Kya Akai Kitsune
• Description: originally thought of this one night as i sat outside looking up at the sky and thinking about the moon and hope and how we need them both in the darkest of times. that was a couple months before i actually wrote this and it took me forever to remember how i phrased some parts, i know its not exactly 'poetry' because it has no rhyming or rhym sceem or whatever, please rate it on its meaning and the wording not the poetics

The moon is hope
Like the moon
Hope waxes and wanes
At times completely disappearing
Like the new moon
But afterwards it comes back
Ever so slowly the bright light again graces the night sky
Then after a time
The light becomes bright and full again
And we no longer need the hope
So it fades away
Until, once again it is gone completely
And that is when we need it
So it grows again
And it goes on and on
For every person in all the world
The cycle of hope
And the cycle of the moon
Are one in the same

I HATE poems that have similes. This has potential, I'd turn it into a metaphor poem if I were you.
