Why didn't the sun miss the earth in winter?
Why did she leave him dead and cold without her?
Did she not know that without her warm heart, he'd shrivel?
Or did the sun not care?
Did she not want to show her big warm smile?
Or was it more than she could bare?
All life would fade and become dull on his surface
Sending the world as we knew it
into the dark abyss
Yet she continues to glow
without her lover
But now in the universe, she was alone
left to suffer.
