the night moon must set for the morning sun to rise
throwing the world into harsh light.
how the world longs for the cool bliss of night

a cry from the night begging the sun to stay away,
but the sun stops for none
throwing the world into harsh light

the morning sun looks and laughs ath the crying moon.
then night dies
and how the world longs for the cool bliss of night

the evening sun starts to set fearing the night
the moon just bows her head
for the night moon must set for the morning sun to rise.

Hi :) I think this poem is a little unclear to me. Can you explain what it means? Also, i think the repetive verses should not be in there, otherwise, i liked the poem. It sounded mysterious. I do not think there was any grammar mistakees or punctuation, and to me it seems overall mysterious  :)
