How the moon betrayed the sun to dance with the stars. Tag me, I’m curious to know what you write :)

Not Enough

Their love was miraculous,

but more tempestuous than most,

and the Moon would glow softly

to let the Sun shine and boast.

Some would say that the sun is grand,

and always showing off.

The moon likes to hide away,

to remain small and soft.

The sun loved the moon

that much was true,

and the moon loved the sun

but the feeling...miscontrued.

Fate did not favor their love

for their time was cut too short,

the moon was dazzled by millions of stars

and left the sun with feelings to sort.

The moon basked in the light of the sun

but the stars took its breath away,

so the moon turned to the dark of night

and abandoned the warmth of day.

The clouds took over the sky,

the world was darkened for days;

the sun then hid itself away

feeling sad, alone and betrayed.

No matter how broken and hurt,

the sun decided to shine

to illuminate its love, the moon,

and pretend that all was fine.
