I AM YOUR SUN The sun is up and the day seems fine because I cannot see the full extent of needs like the sharp and thrilling touch of innate energy and the calming influence of a hand to hold. Fearlessly the sun becomes the sum of everyone before subtracting the insignificant and useless and appearing as a sphere stable in avowals of eternal permanence in a timeless sky. But unable to dissipate the heat of loving you it suffers on the brink of imminent implosion till finally its power flitters away into the air and it hastens to the other side sunken in despair. There it cools its ardour and calls forth reality to humble it still further into acceptance mode but committed to a dream it screams internally while moving, always moving, in the way ordained. The sun, the sun, my heart of love. burns immortally because I cannot see what waits beyond the feel of alone remembering the way it used to be when this world, my world, was truly wonderful. Time, unfriendly time, pushes love off to the side too busy, unaware, to enjoy the midday sun and bask in the knowledge of having overcome the deep and darkly somber shadows of this life. The sun is up and the day seems fine; why is it that I cry silently, internally, like a wounded butterfly until the night grows wings on me and sets my mind to flight? And I fly above the evergreen fields of fantasy like a bird set free to know there’s mystery in me holding hands with angels and sensing inwardly I am your only sun on the other side of life wanting so to rise from dreams into reality Helen / 30 January 2005 |
