Earth

How could you not fall in love with the earth?

Her cheeks are covered with freckles full of constellations that anyone would die to trace.

The sun rises and sets on her green eyes just like the way the sun would play peek a boo at the tropical rainforest at dawn.
Lips are shaped like the crescent moon when she smiles oh so shyly behind the clouds of the dark night and yet still manages to take everyone’s breathe away.

And like like always, she goes around and around in a dull orbit, stuck in her own space, not knowing what’s beyond the milky way, not knowing what it’s like to be side by side with Neptune or Venus.

Still, she goes around
And around
Dutifully
But
Lonely
