Borrowed light

You were the sun
Shining and glowing
Giving light
Making days better
You would glow so bright
You would get praised
Life would not be this good without you
It would be dark and cold
And hard to exist
I was the moon
Dark and glowing in my own way
Sometimes I'm full sometimes im not
Sometimes I'm not present sometimes I'm glowing
People say I need to try more
Am i not enough to make the night sky bright?
People praise the dark fr my glow
But I still go brighter than moost stars aren't i?
But I still try my best to glow
But even the moon needs sun to glow
I'll try my best to glow like u
