War At Night
I would have loved the Sun but chose the Moon
I used to run free with the coming Monsoon
But I stopped when I see it's not worth it
To step on the hot ground with my bare feet.
I could have worn a pair of comfy slippers
Then continue to play with the leaves that withered
But I didn't coz I thought the Sun is just warm
And it wouldn't cause me burns nor harm.
I should have changed the way I think
And kept in mind my choices are links
Like doing connect-the-dots with stars
If I chose the Sun would my nights be at war?
