The Moon’s Search for Meaning
“Beautiful, Cool, Adoring, Humble, Shy, Modern yet Conservative, Takes care of the Family of Stars.”
“The Bright Light of the night sky, the answer to all the darkness, Responsible for Providing Light.”
POV: The Moon
Every day of my life — I have waited. Sometimes in, a hope for a better future, and sometimes, by loosing myself in the depressiveness of my current life progression. Every time I go down or be in the dark, I hear people say, “This I sthe dying phase.” Do not start anything new.
I am blamed for their low emotions, their failures, and the way things work out.
Apparently, according to them: It’s me who pulls down the Vibe of the house.
Sad, isn’t it?
I do try my best.
To Bloom, to Grow. But as I reach a certain level of happiness, I come down. Something brings me down. I try to be my best, and once I am full — people bring up my deformities; they say I am IMPURE for my imperfections.
“The Full Moon — How bright it is. The Shine is Marvelous. But How pretty it would be if she doesn’t have the spots she has now.”
See, it’s funny! With so much power within me, all they see is my deformities.
Like, should I be perfect? Are they? Should I not have my OWN share of originality?
And thus, I start spiraling down. Once again. Deep into my own depth of insecurities.
I sometimes even disappear and come back from my ‘Ghosting from depression state.’ and now — for a while, I am appreciated.
And then I hear this: “The Moon doesn’t have a light of its own. It’s the light from the Sun that it reflects.”
I wonder, “Am I worthless if not for the Sun? Do you realize who put me in this position to be dependent? To expect the Sun to light Up? Do you think I am here by choice?”
No! you wouldn’t realize! You would only Blame or Judge. Cus its easier, right? and I know you’ll Never Realise — Perhaps its a curse, a Generational Curse! — You are all just brought up that way!
But trust me, One day — I will stand Up! and that day, you will remember:
“I DID IT ALL BY MYSELF!”
& If not for the moon — the Sun’s Brightness wouldn’t keep the family of stars together!
