To my Soulmate
If people were a solar system
I would be the sun shining front and center in its glory
My friends would be the stars cheering me on
Boys would be the planet's constantly rotating their attention on me
But you
You are different
You are not like most planets
You only show yourself when I'm not around
In the darkness
Learning about you is difficult
I want to hold the craters between my fingers but
I must wait until your crescent body forms full circle
So I can watch you from hundreds of miles away
You become full for moments and then disappear without notice
I've learned that you need time to recharge
To hide in the twilight and rekindle your radiance
While I may be exposed to all parts of the world
You are mysterious and only expose the half you want us to see
You have taught me to be patient
To hope that one day you may turn your body around and expose your true self
I've become distracted and cannot pay attention to the planets anymore
Rather, I squint my eyes and find you shining light to people in times of despair
Instead of hearing the stars laughter in my ear
I feel your intense eyes twinkling from the skies above earth
I’ve become so used to the planets praising me
That I've become bored of radiating the solar system
I'm tired of the rings chaining me to put on a show that never ends
As I tear the orbital plane and run towards your crescent smile
You,
the moon,
intertwining your craters through the ropes of my flame
Colors igniting the atmosphere
The solar system erupting into this caloratel beauty
The universe knows,
The universe knows that the sun and moon are soulmates
But can never be together
However, this love between our two contrasting beings
Should never be pushed away
And while the universe
Will explode into a big bang
I must embrace your beauty on my flame just once
People forget that the sun needs some light too
And you, the moon,
You have completely, wholeheartedly, electrified me
