Envious Moon

Envious Moon

The moon once held my attention,
it once held my heart.
My words were frequently for it.
The moon so far, so out of reach,
yet it captured me, every night
when I gazed up to it
like it was an angel in the sky.



I found an angel on earth.
She stole my attention,
then my heart , my soul.



She seemed out of reach,
so wonderful, so beautiful, so loving.
Surely she is beyond me.
yet somehow she loves me.



The angel on earth,
has me, all of me.
My very being devoted to her,
my every thought is of her.



Now the moon
envies my love, my angel.
Fot she has my heart
and always will.



Her beauty surpasses that of the moon,
and her brightness,
that of the sun.
Leaving both lunar and celestial bodies
envious of my precious, earthly angel,
who possess more beauty than anything,
could ever have.
