He was always the center of your solar system.
He's the sun your earth revolves around.
Your main lover.
So when I finally came into your solar system,
I was merely a comet
that was supposed to be a shooting star
cutting across your atmosphere briefly,
leaving you with a childish wonder,
and a lifetime of fascination.
However,
when I went through your atmosphere;
I got tangled up in your gravity,
as you pulled me near.
I soon became the moon to your earth.
I began to revolve around you.
I was there to light up
your most darkest of nights.
Whenever the high tides of your tears
began to wash upon the shore of your cheeks
I was there to quickly pull those high tides back, and dry those tears.
Just like the phases of my moon:
ever-changing,
our love began to grow
and change with each bright full moon.
I always remained as bright and as full
as I could be whenever it came to you.
Showing my love in each and every way I could.
But your sun always found a way
to eclipse my love for you.
Show that he was still your main focus,
your main love.
I felt I was only able to eclipse his love once, and that was only for a little while.
After all,
the moon cannot warm the earth
Quite like the sun can.
So I was unable to keep you warm
in my embrace for long.
So when it came time
for my moon to lose your earth,
I no longer shined as brightly.
I could no longer feel
your gravity pull me close to you.
Suddenly I was no longer your moon,
Because what's a comet
without her earth anyway?
