Some days I feel like the flower that bloomed in a dark room.
Like the love you had for me was found hidden deep within the shadows.
Waxing and waning.
How you feel for me changes with your mood in sync with the moon.
And like the rock that orbits Earth, my heart revolves around you.
It started with no light
A rush of desire without sight.
A lust for your presence to illuminate my night.
I showed small glimmers of hope, and I kept moving.
Swimming through galaxies encompassed in your nature,
I fell victim to gravity.
I continue to be pulled to you.
And you’re gifted love in all of its phases.
Genuine. Love.
In time, I align with the sun’s rays. I turn from the shadow and you see me in full.
I show my face, and now you say you could never love me.
I keep moving
Because no matter how drawn to one another we are,
Gravity won’t let us be.
What brought us together is what’s keeping us apart.
The way you view me starts to change
You look at me in a dimmer light;
And I don’t feel as beautiful as I did before.
The world is losing sight of me.
A small part of my heart fights to remain in the light
In hopes that I could still be seen and loved by you.
You don’t hold on; so, I kept moving
Shadows crept across my surface
I’m cursed to be a part of this cycle.
I fall in love with you every time.
Just to be left in the bitter cold of dark.
