I Am Nothing Like the Moon

I can make you feel loved,

I can take the weight of the world off your shoulder,

but only if you ask me to.

I can take you places,

fill all your blank spaces.

This love is silent,

so I don't speak a word

Because I am nothing like the moon.

My light will never be as bright.

I'm nothing that you'd admire from afar,

gazing at with wonder.

I thought I understood it.

That I could grasp the reality of it,

but you make it hard

because you're the stuff and dust dreams are made of.
