‘Phases’ by Cooper Evans

Cooper Evans is a senior at Long Beach Wilson High.

"Phases"

“To the moon and back,” he said whimpering once more...
Be the star for those in search 
As I was long before 

I am a waning moon 
But you are a full moon 
Shining high from the East 
While I am sitting in the West 

For shall you use your power to reflect those surrounding you 
And be the one who others depend to 
Be around till morning dew 

And l will shine like the wise moon I am 
Until I fade below the horizon 

I will see you tomorrow
