Prey

You know very well
How I run away

I blame you and say how you vex me
How I run away

If it was within me
I would never appear
Like a moon I wax and I wane
All in vain

I am the sun’s prey
And there is no place
Where I could rest in solace
Don’t know what troubles me more
Resting in the shade or being torched

Are you my refuge or are you my predator

Good poem. I especially liked the lines:

Like a moon I wax and I wane
All in vain

It gives off a Sylvia Plath vibe that I really enjoyed.
