I feel like my very own planet but unlike others I don’t have a light and a dark side it’s just all dark. I’m not earth but it’s close by I can feel it, I can hear it, and I can see it, it goes on around me, earth orbits around the sun just like the other planets do, but not me, I don’t orbit, I float lifeless and without meaning. Always just wondering why I’m even a planet at all. Then one day I notice a piece of the earth, a beautiful piece of the earth and I fell in love. Not only did I fall in love with this piece but it gave me light. I found my own orbit around the earth and I found out I’m not a planet but a moon. I’ve been a moon this whole time. I found out I shouldn’t want to be a planet because that’s not what I am. Now I have meaning. things don’t go on around me, it goes on with me. I’ve never been this happy, I will continue to adore this piece of the earth for the rest of my life and fallow in its orbit, living in synchrony.
This is my first time posting and basically a metaphoric approach on the last 10 years of my life
