love you



Stars rained on me .
I was happy with my moon .
But my moon fell for another sun. Damn .

I prayed nobody listened .
I cursed myself ,
and I am a dead duck now .

The Sun is happier ,
The moon more beautiful .
I watch her waning and waxing .

I dont keep my beloved in a jar ,
but I am always moon-splashed ,
feeling it every second.

I watch it all the time , but the moon said I ignore her .
I am just too small to be noticed .
I never wanted you .

I just wanted the moonlight.
But , moonlight feels alien now .
