The Sun and The Moon



He was hot. She was beautiful.

He was single. She had many followers.

He was a lemon. She was an egg.

He made everyone around him to sweat in his warmth.

She made everyone around her to sweat in romance.

His nights were nowhere. Her days disappeared.

His love was fresh. Her love was naughty.

He was adored. She was admired.

He was unique. She was versatile.

He rose straight above all the odds.

She smiled bright in the middle of dark.

He woke up with a ‘Good Morning’.

She came to bed with a ‘Good Night’.

They together made every day special!

He was the ‘SUN’ and she was the ‘MOON’.
