Scattered Sunset

Gino

You think

there is no reason

for another day

 

You feel alone

and left for want,

not knowing love

 

You turn

and see

the world changing,

but you're still the same

 

Beyond a windowpane

full of yearning

and understanding

of the dawn

 

The sun rises

And your day begins

 

As the seclusion

of the night

says farewell to all lost

in the veil of a dream

 

Quelling an insurrection

from within,

sojourning

beautiful blue skies

 

'til the day folds

into a scattered sunset

thawing

into a silhouette

of yesterday

 

O dear friend,

you'll see

that life is more

than an evening guise

 

If you'd only believe

in the morning ransom

of the cross

 

Set your troubles

into the light

 

Don’t let your sorrow

rise to be misled, 

or mourning may follow you

          The light is always there for me Gino and every day I awake I know it will be a good day.

            'in the morning ransom
            of the cross'
            'or mourning may follow you'
            but for these to lines
            you'd have penned one of the most
            genuinely uplifting, yet subtly vulnerable
            poems, I have ever read here on mps
            (what a pity: for me, entirely...)
            still, I thank you! dear poet
            for choosing to share
            your wonderful talent,
            undisputedly: A great write!

            • Gino

              Thank you so much L. B. Mek for that wonderful description of these 2 lines. It means a lot to me that I can touch others in this way as you've described.
