The Chase

The sun wakes her up but he never slept

He longs to see her except as he turns

Is only then when she awakes to breathe

The moon beams at twilight while sun casts shadows

He runs fast winters so she gleams longer

Never satisfied with what he gave her

The sun catches her just for a second

At the brim of the horizon she smiled

But in an instant he was gone again

He'll find himself out of breath not knowing

Whether it is her charm that captures him

Or her short lived, escaping company

He'll never catch up to fading moments

Once the two cross paths, he'll only want more

Exuding his light to please her being

He will die for her endless starvation

Discontent with life, always wondering

Why he always caught his dream girl running

Not realizing because of his strive

Her beauty was seen and led her to thrive

He was the reason she lived unfulfilled

Because he too died for reasons she lived
