Silly Little Moon

You envy me so With all of your might You want to steal all my warmth And extinguish my light You covet my power And my celestial role You want to replace me With all your heart and soul You yearn for the control Over the mornings and day Your greed for more time Has lead you astray You try to block me out Every couple of years Unable to completely do so It brings you to tears You obsess over my fame You detest all my praise You despise my allure And my warm loving rays Void of any beauty You feel dead and cold Stories of your greatness Will never be told Forever chasing the day You’re bound to the night You will never be happy Till you’re the only one on sight Your quest to seize the day Is useless and in vain You’re stuck in your own orbit That feeds your jealousy and pain Your chance of replacing me as a star Won’t be coming soon For I’m the life giving sun Silly little moon....
