HOW

How do you stand
where the sun meets the sky?
How do you smile
and not cry?

How do you always
lend a helping hand?
How do you never
wish to die?

"Well it's easy," you say,
you say with a smile;
"you see you've lost love,
but I've mine."

The earth orbits the sun
the moon orbits the earth
and I my love, orbit you.
