I love the sun
I love it’s warm embrace
I love the way it takes
The tension from my bones
And just burns it
I love the sun
I love its glaring rays
I love the way
It soothes my eyes closed
Even under the shade
I hate the sun
I hate the way it burns
And I hate the way
It makes me yearn for it
I hate the sun
I hate the way it
Suffocates me
Warms me
Grazes me
Makes me feel
Loved
I hate the way
It ...
When sunlight drizzles from the sky,
It takes me back to thoughts of you.
I wonder where you are, and why,
You could not stay as others do.
I could not see through blinded eyes,
I could not see as others do.
But now you lay where beauty lies,
My heart sees every inch of you.
Regretful are these sad and eyes,
We did not love as lovers do,
But oh, the sky feels ever blue.
For you are there...
a soft grazing on my cheek
i swat it away
but it returns
persistent
i open my eyes
squint as they adjust to the light
not a fly but rather
your fingertips on my cheek
i smile up at you
my head on your chest
a leaf falls from above us
as the breeze starts to slow
white patches on my skin
from the sunscreen
you poorly applied
but i don’t mind a few burns
so long as we stay
like this a while lon...
Bright yellow rays of sun
Poke through the branches
Of the large willow
I take a deep breath
And my eyelids flutter
The scene around me
Starts to fade
I feel a peaceful breeze
Blowing on my face
Nothing has ever felt
Better before
A calm washes over me
At this beautiful place
“Raya!”
My eyes snap open and I
Twist my head slowly to the
Person with a newborn,
Furious, uncontrollable anger...
The sun shines across my skin to eventually create burns, hot as magma.
The fluffy, soft, grass tickles my beige skin. It makes me sneeze, only slightly though.
Not a very big sin.
The beautiful daisies flutter in the wind, Their soft petals brushing my skin.
My belly rises and falls, as I breath ‘in’ then ‘out’.
The world feels so calm right now, I could take a nap....
