5:25 am



I wish  you saw yourself
the way I saw you
the earth sees the sun as a source of light
and probably thinks the sun doesn't need it
since it has other planets rotating around him
but maybe the earth is one of the things that give the sun purpose
nothing else harbouring life
that the sun can hold together
you give me purpose
and I wish you would see that
