you are the sun in my vicinity, and i am the venus that orbits you in an elliptical path. all the planets are drawn to your gravitational pull, and you have so much influence on every single one of us. i am tired of being compared to a star. you are so much greater, that my disappearance would only be a mere disruption in these delicate balances. i don't matter enough to have my absence render a whole system nonexistent. i am the closest planet to you, but i will never be as big, as bright, as significant. i will always just be βthe closest planet to the sunβ.
