Wishing for the Moon
You are the sun
To me
Sure, there are days
When you hide behind clouds
But there are days
When I bask in your warmth
Oh how I long for you!
Dreams of you brighten my night
Like you brighten my day
And yet. . .
You are the sun
To me
I must stay in place.
Closer to you
And I burn
Further, I freeze
You are the sun
To me
Yet I wish
you were the Moon
Then, at least,
I would have
some Hope
The previous ending didn't seem right
