Earth spins in warmth, a dance with the sun,
In golden rays, her heart is won.
But the moon, in silver, watches with care, Drawing tides, a love laid bare.

Though sunlight warms,
the moonlight sighs,
In quiet nights, their bond defies.
For in this celestial embrace, they know,
Earth loves the sun, but the moon loves so.

She's quiet tonight
After our conversation
I had an opinion
Then she went quiet.
Her responses are weak
Her mannerisms timid
I can feel my anger building
But I internalise the demon.
I do not sleep well
Nor does she
I can hear her breathing
I know when she's asleep.
She wakes me unintentionally
I feel I barely slept
She apologises and leaves for work
While I listen to every footstep.
I cannot concentrate at work
Basic responses to trivial questions
I do just enough
To defer any suspicion.
I want her to say I'm wrong
That she doesn't agree
But she internalised her demon
Just like me.
