Ultimately,
I think she had forgotten what she meant to me.
somewhere along the way
I found myself in the middle of the busiest city
on the eastern side of the Mississippi River
I could no longer find the star
that lead me to her eyes
somehow, we’ve become distracted by the lights
that are artificially made just to tear souls apart
the first night I was awed by her beauty
there was a lunar eclipse in the sky
and everything felt so dark
but she was
the closet thing to a sun
she shined brighter than any star I’ve ever seen
I told her
You are the sun, and i am each and every
planet revolving around you
the first four planets are my
mind, soul, body, and heart
and the astroid belt acts as a rib
still dangerous, the fragments leave craters behind
this is why every part of me is so damaged
still, magnificent star, I revolve around you
I needed to return to a rural countryside
where I could finally see each moon that she made shine
because these moons are all of my insecurities
oh, how she made them all seem so admired
