She knows it's time when the Sun calls for her. Earthlings are confused as to where she's hiding, but she's only gone to visit her second lover. The stars wait for her to come home, only to have her back a few days too late. The stars are tearful tonight as they tell the Moon they are done with playing hide and seek with her. She doesn't care, she tells herself, as she tries to look for the Sun. She's gone for too long, the Earthlings notice. They don't like her as much as they adore the stars.

But the Moon doesn't understand why. Her gravitational force on the tides of Mother Nature causes many deaths but the stars have done worse. Well, they will... in a hundred billion years when they explode killing all Earthlings, as well as Mother Nature. She tells herself she's good and that her intentions are more right than any fairness in the Universe. But the Sun doesn't call her anymore as he has other moons he prefers to phone in. So the Moon goes back and makes herself present to the Earthlings below as she cries for the girl she should have loved first.
