I was the relentless sun,
While you the calming moon,
I was radiated with passion unforgiving,
And you fled from pain into the inopportune,

My mind had begged to run from you,
but my heart had demanded I stay,
You radiated the dark in me,
And I stopped at nothing to make your heart sway,

And so we were polar opposites,
That could not exist without the other,
We were in complete contradictory denial,
But one could not do without the other lover,

So I shone my rays of desperation
And reflected off your doubt,
I fought for respiration
And you responded to my draught,

You’re moon will stir the seas I heat,
My rays will warm your darkness,
As we co-exist together,
And work towards each other’s calmness.
