Moon of My Life
The sun has beauty.
No lust I possess for her.
For I love the moon
Daylight entices.
The fool that admires her face
Is blinded and burned.
O sweet moon, so cool,
Soothing, guiding, dynamic.
The sun is static.
Sunrise and sunset
Repeating day after day.
I dread the dullness.
The lunar lady
Hides and shines in the night sky.
Oceans dance for her.
The earth befriends both,
But the sun keeps her distance.
The moon stays closer.
I bear no ill will
Against the celestial star.
Her gifts are plenty.
But stars are selfish
All must revolve around them.
Egocentric flames.
The moon is balanced:
Pushing and pulling the world
But remains humble.
Fiery wrath destroys
Those who seek to touch the sun.
Therefore, no one tries.
It is possible,
For those who are courageous
To embrace the moon.
Such task is daunting.
Difficult is the journey,
But then, so is love.
