The Moon And Stars
I look into the night sky;
Stars pervasively erupt throughout the sky,
With the moon settled in the middle like an eye.
In the midst of the stars, there you were,
Shining brightly, like a glistening pearl.
You had everything, that made your mind swirl,
You had people to relate to, that made yourself twirl.
Then I looked at the moon, it was different from others,
Something not in tune, with the stars who had their druthers.
That was me, without anything or anyone,
That was me, withholding fun, only because I had none.
For some reason, you guys have nastiness,
And now I wonder, ‘but where is my happiness?’.
