the moon knows. she has seen countless confessions in her light, watched life and death alike, and judged none of it. the moon is the one who will not whisper your secrets to the stars. she is just a reflection, after all. limited by her existence. the sun is the one who will betray you, will turn his back on you, will scream everything you've done to everyone awake to hear. the sun shines and does not care if you burn beneath him. the moon does not care, either, but she is not vindictive, and for that, we tell her things the sun will never know. didn't anyone tell you that the moon can keep a secret? she is not the sun.

i have a lot of feelings about the sun and the moon and i'm still working on getting them down.
