My heart aches. On the one side it loves and is loved so immensely. But when that sun has set and the moon rises I am drawn down into the sadness that is the dark. The moon is the only light that makes anything bright enough to see, but even at that it is dark. Yet there are many sonnets written over the moon. The moon inspires so much, but how could I live in the dark forever – is it even a possibility? The moon needs the sun to have its light, but I will never be the sun to the moon, this much I know. The moon will never need me like it does the sun, instead I could merely dance for the moon, and praise it and sing songs to it, the moon would and could never touch me like the warmth of the sun.
In the sun everything is bright. Its warmth reaches down to me and makes me happy. I feel loved in the sun’s warmth, I feel alive, but at the same time the sun sometimes traps me, there is no where to run from the sun, except for perhaps the shade of a tree, but shadows move and sun replaces shade. I love the sun, but could I live in it forever? I know deep down that I could but I get saddened at the thought of never seeing the moon in the same light as I once have.
I don’t want to lose the moon, but there is no way a moon could live in a sun-inhabited sky. Nor could the sun ever touch the strength of the moon’s night.
I find myself at times torn between two skies.
