The burning orange rings of the smoldering sun
Have finally set on our love
And I look above
To reminisce in it’s glow
That offers no apologies
For the broken hearts
It takes with it.
Nor the Sun or the Moon
Make apologies
For anything they take with them!
They only promise
To rise again.
The sun is not my friend.
Displacement over comes me
As my mind tries to make sense of it all
And I look to my wall
Of calendar months gone by
9 months
I cry
Wanting to
Run into your arms
And glue back a plate
That has been dropped a million times
There are too many pieces now…
Unable to hold anything
Except the tears that slide into the cracks
And off the edge
To a cold and familiar ground…
I look around for you...
No longer can you be found.
The world looks so different
Now that your not around
But I will admit....
I smile more now
Than I frown
I never thought
That I could love someone
As much as I loved you…
I surprised myself.
At first, I did not know what to do
Oh, setting sun!
Your no friend of mine!
But everyday
You made good on your promise
To rise again
And with time
you illuminated my sky
slowly gave me reasons not to cry
Gave me new wings, so that I may fly
And make peace
With your setting sun
Good-bye’s.
The Sun is Now a Friend of Mine.
