Before there was you there was everything

Contrary to many beliefs, I discovered the most wonderful time of my life is when I am on my own. Alone. No one to turn to , no one to talk to, nothing to cling on to but emptiness. A blank. It is like I am a lost soul in a big world. How sad the thought of such.

Surprisingly, I also pondered. What if I were a moon. All alone up there in the dark sky. All by my own. And suddenly, there were stars all over me, though far they may be. Somehow their lights shine one me, giving me the light of my own, that I am now adored by the living down the earth. The stars help me to find my way, to gain man's affection. The inhabitants of the earth look upon me, welcoming me to brighten up their nights. Lighten up their spirits.

There I was - a lonely moon up the sky - glowing in the dark, brighten up their hearts.

That was before there was you. There was everything. What if now there's you? Would there still be everything? Or would I lose a part of everything? For now, I am sharing my everything with you? Perhaps I should leave the answers to the universe, for the moon, the stars, and the sky intertwine with one another...
