Inner Eclipse

I am the sun.

I bring light and warmth
To everyone around me

I offer clarity
In murky situations

I provide nourishment
Whenever I can

And I do my best
To overcome the clouds
In my head

I am the moon.

I provide comfort and strength
To those lost in the darkness

I embrace the mysterious
And gossip with the stars

I hide from the sun
Unwilling to expose my flaws

And I keep your secrets safe
For who is more trusting
Than the moon

I am an eclipse.

I am darkness and light
Living together in harmony

I contain both goodness and badness
For they are what make me whole

I can be strong and stubborn like the sun
Ready to tackle my problems head-on

Or soft and gentle like the moon
Resting and recharging in the night

And when they combine
In a rare, natural phenomena

That’s when I truly become myself

She also writes and publishes plenty of individual poems on her website, and her work has appeared in the Talon Literary Magazine, the Beautiful Poetry anthology by Silent Sparks Press, the #AmWriting anthology by the Wayne Foundation, and Life Blood: A Collection of Vampire Tales by Gary Hill.
