"Phoebe" by Pranavaa

The wind blows through her hair,

As the waves crash shore;

Her eyes wander in the distance,

Searching for light

In the midst of dark.

 

She was named “the bright one”

Yet always wasn’t able to handle the dark;

Never lived up to her name,

Because how could a light shine

When it’s afraid of the dark?

 

The sun was her home,

So comforting, bright and hopeful;

And the moon was her alien,

Foreign, cold and soulless.

 

One day, she ran,

Away from all her fears,

To the one place she called her home;

Except it was nowhere to be found,

In the cold of the night.

 

Her eyes keep searching

As she stands ashore;

Something catches her eyes,

Looking bright, comforting and hopeful:

The moon.

 

It isn’t as dark as she remembered it,

It isn’t dark at all;

It looks bright and valiant

Shining in the sky

And radiating light upon the dark.

 

The night doesn’t seem scary now;

As she suddenly realizes,

The dark is just a sight

That’s yet to be seen.

Author’s note: The name “Phoebe” means “the bright one”. Also, in Greek Mythology, Phoebe was a Titan associated with the moon.
