moonlight sunsets

poem by: Anna Freshour
Written on Jun 30, 2019

The moon and the sun 
used to be lovers.
Creating light shows for 
all the world to see.
Making stars and planets
all come into alignment 
with all of the wrong things.

The more they made love,
the more they tore each other apart.
They only did so because 
they thought that 
this is what love looked like.
They thought that love 
had to have a cost.

So they had to break away from each other,
They created day and night.
They never see each other anymore.
Only for a few passing seconds 
every day.
But the sun cant handle it
so she runs and hides,
and the moon can't chase,
because hes finding his way 
in the darkness.
But don't worry.
She still tries to light the way.

Too much like you and I.
