Life is like the sky

There are millions of stars and planets

That are used to the same routine

But there is so much variety

Between the seen and the unseen

For not everything is as it seems

Some only know what their eyes absorb

They think about what could be

Instead of what was, before.

For the moon is like the popular one

Who always gets a lot of attention

And the stars around are noticed, too

So they follow the moon in its ascension

It's true, your eyes are drawn to these

But what of the other stars in the sky?

There's no reason for them to be undermined

For they are no different from you and I

Then there are those who cannot be seen

Even though it is true they're in the same place

Pushed away, placed under the radar

And now too nervous to show their face

But everything does come to an end

Although it will be seen in another

For when the sunshine comes

You will begin to wonder

Who is this wonderful creature?

Who is so warming and oh so bright

For the sun is like your loved one

As you never want to look away from the light

The moon will begin to ask itself

What's wrong with me? Why don't I shine?

I'm always changing to look brand new

I go from waxing to waning to whining...

Now if the moon is to get jealous

Then it can just block out the sun

Now left all alone in a darkened world

You give your attention to no one

Just remember even when things are blue

Just bring yourself up when things look gray

Because no matter what happens

You will always find your way.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Wanted to compare two random things, and these were what I thought of first. I honestly didn't think I'd be able to create anything off of these two things, but I was at least able to think of some comparisons, so this is what I've got. If you find the time, let me know what you thought, if the comparisons made sense or not, or whatever else is on your mind. Thanks for reading!
