He who is bound to a star does not turn back.

You remind me of the moon,
not because you’re
“pretty,”
but because you steal others’
light and reflect it as your own,
paling the light of
true stars in glory
that was never truly your own.

The moon has always been something beautiful that we admire, but without the sun, it is nothing but matter.
