Your Moon and Stars

In your words, I am your moon and stars
 I light your path in a lonely place
 Bright as the moon and my eyes are like stars      
 Yet, you lie with another when I’m away

 I light your path in a lonely place
 The reflection of my face is all you see   
 Yet you lie with another while I’m away    
 I am food for your heart; I nourish your soul

 The reflection of my face is all you see    
 Bright as the moon and my eyes are like stars    
 I am food for your heart; I nourish your soul   
 Mere words chosen precisely to beguile  

 Bright as the moon and my eyes are like stars  
 Words once held as truth, now accuse you    
 Mere words chosen precisely to beguile
 All beautiful lies used in strategy   

Words once held as truth now accuse you
 Bright as the moon and my eyes are like stars    
 All beautiful lies used in strategy
 In your words, I am your moon and stars

I want to thankyou Annalise for your kind words to me...I've never posted a poem anywhere before, terrified of being ridiculed, so thankyou, you lifted my spirits! And I feel even better now after reading some of your work, your words and what you do with them are amazing. I hope to write like you someday.
