The Eclipse

I asked him, "But you are the king of the night and she, the queen of light, belongs in the morning sky. How can you be together for so long even though you belong to opposite ends? How can you live without seeing each other every day?"
He smiled and said, “Every time she rises, and every time she is about to drown in the wildness of the ocean, I see her across the horizon. We wave at each other. The stars and clouds carry our letters and every day we smile at each other. That smile means I received your words.”
I sat there in silence, thinking of this tragedy. He saw me and said, "don't you worry my darling. We meet each other from time to time. We have our moments." And he winked at me.
That's when it hit me. Now and then, Moon and Sun meet on the other side of the stars to dance. Their dance is so beautiful that the whole universe admires it. The humans on Earth calls this tragically beautiful dance of true love ‘The Eclipse'.
