Complicated

You are both the sun and moon
A constellation of stars and a black hole
You are a gentle rose and a basket of lies
You are the dark clouds undecided if it should rain
You are spectacular
Likened to a mango tree heavy with fruits
Or a** colourful** butterfly scented with nectar
The awe of the ocean caressing lands
Or the gait of the eagle in flight
You are amazing
Yet on the other hand
You could be the busy bee producing honey
The white and grey hair of the aged
A hand to hold during lonely darkness
A beating heart after death
But I was deceived
You are too complicated to understand
But I love you the more for it
