what if
i lived for a time
that one time
that the moon glitters
on a black sky.
it needs to be so black
so the orbit
with no light of its own
can smile.
what if i closed my eyes
to the sunshine
and the stars
and Venus and Mars
because i am her child
i am looking for my light.
i have drowned my soul
in oceans of darkness
broken my heart
like stardust
so maybe i can see me.

I felt this. I love how it doesnt need to be contextualized to be understood. We share an experience and i feel that makes us sisters in some way. Thank u for sharing Sara 💕
