-What is the Sun?
-Many years ago people worshipped it as a God, called it Ra -They believe Ra rose as young child at first light, hung as a proud adult during mid-day, and rest as an old soul -And the next day reborn a new -I simply find solace in sunrise and sunset, transitional periods, so beautiful -Feeling as if you are connected to something more -Just like water, all life need night just as much as light -Such warmth, it can strengthen all things -But too much can hurt, event burn -Is that what I did to you -I never mean to hurt you -Is that why you ignore me -Once upon a time, my heart and mind were conflicted -Let the voices of others steer my actions -Not really weighing the consequences of a decision -I never stopped thinking about you -Doing any and all things to give you the space I thought you wanted -You tried, and I denied you -Afraid of liking of you and all the means -To think, for a year, holding emotions inside -When finally you released, I failed to catch -Thinking what you felt would not last -Desiring what I did not have or could not provide -Hiding myself, it was cowardly -You are more than just a pretty face -A spark, a friendship, maybe more -Willing to move in any direction if you desire it -Ready to assume risk and all that means -I found my reason -I believe what I feel is not without cause -Do your thoughts still linger, entertain possibility -That relaxed style, that smile, how you believe you're wild, a free spirit -I could be that wind next to you, because no one needs to carry you, strong all on your own -Sometimes the wind shifts, gets a bit crazy -It's hard when we want it to be soft -Moves fast when we want it to be slow -It makes mistakes and if we forgive, like the sun, two souls/two lives can be reborn a new |
