Every day
I am taunted by the sun
For I know I can reach for its warmth
and feel its tantalizing heat
but I cannot touch
its flame.
  
Every night
I am comforted by the moon
For I know its luminosity is great
But its loneliness and mine
Feel one in the same.

Ever since
You made me look up at the sky
And told me we still had the stars
I've loved those constellations
But I cannot give them
A name.
