The Moon and I

The moon and I are linked.

We are the same, I and she.

Whilst she is surrounded by

Untouchable sky diamonds,

I am also alone

In a sea of people.

Everybody here has friends,

Just as stars lie in clusters.

The moon and I are different

From the ones which surround us,

So we are therefore ignored

By most of our peers.

I lost him,

The one I loved.

The moon has lost her lover,

Her daytime replacement, the Sun.

And now, friendless, we support each other,

Though we are separated ourselves.

The moon and I are linked.

We are the same, I and she.

I miss my love,

As she misses hers,

But I am here for her,

And she is here for me.

We set each other free.
