i am not the sun

by Rina B.

she ruined the sun for me, 
because i tried to be the sun for her. 
 
molded myself, the shape of energy  
all for my lover and abuser. 
 
my crying started in the summer, 
and did not stop until the very end of us.
 
we were smoking, talking through the rain 
with droplets dancing in my hair, 
i felt compelled to end the pain. 
 
saved by the mist, 
saved by the gloom. 
 
sad love is just an empty room. 
 
she was a sun theft 
a shadow in the heat
 
i was the moon
and the rain
and the hail
and the snow
and the ice
and the sleet
