Sunlight

hpoetry

Everything happens in an eclipse;

A day’s light snuffed out by a single shred of darkness,

A dark night lit up with a whispered promise -

I look good -

And they all want to feel me on their skin like the sun

Whose golden light brushes the edges of buildings.

I take a photo

And it is beautiful and I have no one to show it to.

Who stands with me when the light is gone?

I try to grow

But the sun holds me back in its shadow

And it tells me - my child, if you wish to grow,

Do not shine your light on others, but yourself.
