A Wish Beneath a Dying Sun

Ethan Mikel St.Amour

The dying sun stares
Its burning eye will not close
It knows I am here

The daylight starts to scream
Black veins crawl across the sky
Something wakes below

I whisper my last wish
The sun goes dark for a moment
Then whispers it back

Night swallows the world
But the sun still burns somewhere
Behind my closed eyes

    It is the last stanza that gets the fave in this poem. Both poetic and metaphoric it sends a powerful message. Nicely done

    It never stops shining. Not even for a second! Great write.
