Everyone says that the sun chases the moon every day, every night, chasing her iridescent silver beauty for all eternity. But who says it isn’t the other way around? This is the story of how the moon and sun came to be.
He stares at her
And she returns the look,
But turns away shyly
He makes a joke
And she laughs but turns her head back to her book, because she thinks her laugh is ugly.
But he keeps staring at her; watching her laugh
And smiles quietly to himself.
His friends push him towards her laughing; they know.
She smiles at the ground as he approaches her
He asks her to dance his voice confident, but his eyes betray him.
She bites her lip and with a nod of her head leads him onto to the floor,
Glancing over at her friends and flashing them a gleeful grin.
And as she laces her arms around his neck
He closes his eyes and exhales
He waits for her at her locker everyday
And she looks for him when she reaches the top step
And when they see each other everything else fades away
And the whole world becomes mute.
He holds her bag as she gathers her things
And interrupts her chattering about a book
To remind her to grab her math homework
And they walk away
Hand in hand
Hearts in sync
Baboom, baboom, baboom, baboom.
And at night after their phones run out of juice
And it’s too dark to find a charger
He lies on her side of his bed, clutching her pillow
Because it smells like her hair.
And she holds the stuffed animal he bought her
His locket on her chest rises and falls
As she falls into sleep where she dreams about him
And he lies awake
Her brown eyes, pouty lips, and waving hips teasing him
And even though they said goodnight hours ago,
They never really leave each other.
His hand on her leg
Her thumb tracing his hand
His hand on her hip
Her head on his shoulder
His cologne on her skin
Her sparkly lip gloss on his neck
She’s on his mind
And his name is on her lips.
Everyone knows it except them
They were in love
For the very first time.
PART TWO/THE BIG BANG THEORY
But it’s a new season
And a new day
And as the sun comes out
She’s melting away
He tries to pick her back up
But the harder he pulls
And the closer she gets to the golden rays,
The quicker she melts away.
So she falls back into the night
Her mind was swept away by the moons tide,
Her heart froze over like flowers who blossom too early in spring,
And her skin grew pale like the snow hidden away in the wood’s shadows.
And maybe everything would’ve been okay;
If he had told her it was okay to feel blue like the midnight sky,
And that he didn’t care that her mind had a crack or two.
Or that her heart was decorated with icy carnations.
But he wanted the old her back;
The one that laughed at his jokes
And bit her lip when he spoke.
Whose hair was thick, lips full, and eyes bright.
But all he had left was a whisper of a girl he once loved
A skeleton that rattled when the wind blew too hard,
With eyes that were never there.
And at first he tried with all his might to hold her up,
But she was too heavy a heart to carry
And her feet dragged across the ground.
So he shoved her into a closet
And followed the horizon.
Because he was a sun child,
And where she once shined, she now glowed
And she faded into a moon child.
But he was the sun
And she was the moon
They weren’t meant to collide
But when they did,
Zeus struck down his golden lightning bolt to the mortal ground
The earth spilt apart and swallowed itself whole,
The Angels above screamed making the god’s ears bleed gold,
And the baby Jesus cried.
The stars ignited like a match that fell into a pool of gasoline,
And the universe exploded.
The blast sent them their own way.
But the Sun was stronger and greater and mightier,
And he rose above the fiery stars and bleeding sky and wailing gods,
But the Moon crumbled and fell down,
down,
down,
To the deepest cavern of the ocean
That even the great kraken feared.
And the Sun left her
But she never left him.
She follows in his shadow
Glimpses of his iridescent light
Is the only thing that keeps her going.
But he is the Sun.
And she is the Moon.
And they will never ever be.
And that is what will **** her.
