i envy the sun
for her shine gets to hover
on you almost every day,
i envy the earth
for she gets to hold you
to touch you every moment,
and i envy gravity
i don't want her to pull you to the ground
but rather towards me
alas, i can't do anything about it
because i'm here
and you're somewhere else
and i can't shine my light on you,
i can't hold you
and touch you when i please
and i can't be gravity
yet somehow
you say i am enough
yet somehow
you still chose to love me
tell me..
how big can your heart be?
