Moon

i have always reflected Your Light
Let the world think
i had a borrowed lustre
subjugated to Your Glory
You were all that mattered
The world revolved around You
i followed its lead, trapped in a mindless orbit

But babe, it’s only a matter of perspective
Galileo made a revolutionary change;
So can I.
I am not a moon, your assertions are baseless.
I am a sun with an inner fire
Radiating my own light.
you are not doing me any favours
Pathetic delusions are all you have
you talk so loud
It is you who have no inner fire, no substance
Dull and lifeless
you depend on borrowed lustre.
