It is a never ending torment,

A punishment, but for what?

It is day,

But never night.

My eyes yearn for a break from the light.

Never have I wished for darkness,

Yet this retribution has pushed me too far.

In this perpetual daylight,

I find solace in the shadows.

For that is the only way I can maintain my prudence.

And hope to not stumble off too far.
