I am the Moon to Your Earth

Center the sun to our universe
Reluctant or obliging we dance,
Words of mine in stanza and verse
Undeserving of your slightest glance.

The brightness of sun is a mockery
To the darkness that surrounds the stars,
And under the sun I pledged heart and soul
In the darkness perfection was ours.

Gravity of yours I cannot resist
Pulled close by your magnetic force,
My heart that burns with fire, insists
Gently to open discourse.

But Gravity is fickle and strong
Tides it commands and our blood
My moods swing with the ebb and the flow
Emotions withdraw and then flood.

Create my orbit, re-draw the lines
Construct blind walls that divide
Detail the spaces that are only mine
Place me in the box you decide

The planets still spin, the sun still burns
The galaxy swallows us all,
And here I crash, my heart, it yearns
For the rise that was before the fall.

Center the sun to our universe
Love is bright and it burns,
I circle in vain, I try to come close,
But I am the moon to your Earth.
