Share the Moon (Tanaga)
Alexxa Dec 2017
Tonight we shall share the moon.
Separated, hearts marooned.
Though distant keeps us apart,
I carry you in my heart.
The Tanaga consists of four lines with seven syllables each with the rhyme at the end of each line.  With an AABB rhyme scheme.

Unknown Girl (Nonet)
Alexxa Dec 2017
I live in a world of illusions.
Half truths buried by mirages.
Nobody knows my true self.
My mask, firmly in place,
I hide from your eyes.
The shadow life,
Is my home.
