The story and flow of this poem was so good I didn't even realize there was a rhyming structure until I finished it. Well done. I particularly liked the line "That dying look burns into his soul, making any a peace a thing of his past."
I thought the "Maybe I don't want to be alive!" to be a little melodramatic, but then again we certainly see why he would say that. Rephrasing that line could be a worthwhile experiment.
The moon truly is something, isn't it? I like the part about seeing the moon from a distance allowing us to see how beautiful it is. Is it really considered a fake planet by people? I've never heard that one before. I think a semicolon is needed on the second to last sentence.
