the moon and I both
go through phases
my light wanes and waxes
just like hers does
when my light is full,
boy,
I'm giddy with how much I love you
but when my light is small,
I'm so cold,
enveloped by the shadows
I'm sorry for my cold spells
I hope you know
those phases have nothing to do with you
but just like the moon has the sun
I have you
your light illuminates the world
which illuminates me
you light me up
