You were the moon who pulled me home
You were the sun that grew me
You were there when I was alone
You were the one who loved me
You promised you'd stay
You were the only one by my side
But one day you casted me away
And all I see now is a divide
The stars, I once tried to reach
The path you lit, I tried to follow
To make you proud was all I ever wished
Now I can't help this happiness I borrow
One misstep and it all disappeared
This great wave rushed over my head
I could no longer see your light
You turned your head as I bled
It ached to think you no longer had faith
I showed you should have trust
But it was already too late
Now your words echo in my head
I couldn't embrace the apologies
I knew you would only lie
So I tried to have faith in myself
But now there is something broken inside
I won't make it, I'm not enough
In the greatest depths my wound still weep
Tried to fake it but somewhere I've given up
My euphoria now lasts skin deep
There is no beacon to turn to
My foundations turned to rubble
Loneliness is my solace
Don't have to confront the troubles
Blame now falls on no one but me
I guess there was truth in your eyes
For now I can't get back up
And I'm stuck wondering, why?
Why am I not strong?
Why stay walking on ice?
My fears seem all gone
But they're taunting in their disguise, for-
You are the moon who untethered me
You are the sun that made me dust
You are the one who left me stranded
You are the one who had my love

*shaking six year old me by the shoulders* YOU WERE RIGHT! YOU WERE RIGHT ABOUT SHARING IS CARING AND FAIRNESS AND TREATING OTHERS HOW YOU WANT TO BE TREATED AND BEING NICE TO PEOPLE AND LETTING THE LITTLE THINGS GO AND ASSUMING EVERYONE IS GOOD. YOU WERE RIGHT. THE ADULTS WERE WRONG. IM SORRY THEY TOOK THAT AWAY FROM YOU. KEEP BELIEVING IN SANTA AND THE FAIRIES IN THE TREE IN THE GARDEN. IM SORRY THEY EVER CONVINCED YOU TO FEEL SHAME. NOTHING IS EVER "JUST THE WAY IT IS". YOU ARE PRESENT IN THIS WORLD. YOU WERE RIGHT.
