Cosmic Cliffs of Carina

Am I like the moon

The light I shine illuminates the meadow, tinted blue 

The wind sweeps your hair briskly

You look up, at this celestial thing

Pockmarked with time, the scars of past troubles

And think to yourself, inside yourself, where I cannot see

Do you wonder at my light, keeping you out of the dark and away from the trees?

Or do you realize that this light is not my own, but borrowed

From my fiery brother, who sleeps under the horizon

And that I merely reflect, imitate

His brighter, lighter warmth and touch

I cannot warm you, as you shiver in the cold

I cannot show off every contour of your face

I cannot reveal the hues of the flowers you hold, in the blue tinted meadow

I worry that this is what you think

With those deep eyes, as wide as the starry sky

I worry that I am not enough

Cannot be enough

Compared to the others around me

Perhaps I am wrong; you may not see that at all

But as long as I think of this, and think of you

No matter how much I may love you

I am as far away, and hard to reach

As the moon

We just gotta be patient...

Very true. But is that such a bad thing? Maybe I want to be lost.

I, too, remember that feeling. You are caught between all that was and all that must be. You feel lost.

— Haruki Murakami, Hard-Boiled Wonderland And The End Of The World.

How can I feel so free

Yet stay locked and afraid, hidden from the world
