My Moon My Sun

From the hot sun to the gentle cold rain,

Warm sand turns into a forest of green,

You stand against the world your eyes of grain,

Your shell like diamonds pale as the star's gleam.

You saved me more than you think you know,

I loved you, I still do, until you left,

You left to protect me but I really know,

Another took your place but I was spent.

Eyes of a predator watched us like prey,

Like prey we waited until she appeared,

Fangs and claws ripped apart the flesh of prey,

The battle for life but one was not spared.

A battle ends but another has begun,

A battle between my Moon and my Sun.
