Sunless Sonnet

Oh you, why must you be my song again?

You're far from me; the last one of the three

Bright stars I sought out in my sky - fine men

Who shone in skies to make a dazzling scene.


The first one failed to light the navy void.

At least you pierced the shadows, unlike him.

But still, you steal back words I have enjoyed.

The starlight gone, my black hole heart feels grim.


The second was the brightest- Apollo

Fought for me back then, noble of marriage.

He was better than you, curing sorrow.

He earned a sunlit ring, veil, and carriage.


But you, my cursed third, were my earthbound Sun.

Without your golden rays, I am no one.
