You say you want the stars and the moon
But how can this be…
When you claim they’re out of reach?
Sunshine, sunshine what have you done to me?
I’m caught under your spell and nothing can save me.
Sunshine, sunshine don’t you dare leave me…
I’ve grown dependent and can no longer escape thee.
Sunshine, sunshine I don’t like defeat…
But your light has worn me down, and I must now retreat.
What a freeing feeling it is to know the sun…
To have one’s soul embraced by Nature’s warmest set of arms.
Conceal yourself from the sun and get to know the darkness.
Find a friend in the sun
And rejoice at the sight of its comforting glow.
In every encounter with the sun,
I’m always left beaming with delight.
The sun has this beautiful way of sharing her warmth with us by removing the numbness in our soul and reminding us that feeling still exists.
Open up your mind and the world will open up to you.
Books are the quintessential backdoor to escape through for those who’s imagination holds no limit.
Affinity for Nature:
The sun is my smile
The moon is my soul
The rain is my sorrow
The wind is my voice…
And each time I step outside,
I can’t help but stop and pay thanks to nature.
Mourning a Gentle Giant:
Do you remember when I’d sit by your side,
and we’d dream of the days where we could be free?
Do you remember when you’d offer me shade
and patiently wait with me as I watched the sun fade?
Do you remember when I’d ask you for clarity
and your silence was my greatest therapy?
Do you remember when you’d offer me protection
and tell me all I really needed was a little redirection?
Do you remember when I’d confide in you
when those of the flesh had abandoned me?
And do you remember all the days
we would lay happily among nature
and giddily smirk at the sights and sounds
All the while, forgetting the fact that I was human
and you a tree?
To See Your Depth:
Some people have a depth to them as deep as the ocean…
This kind of depth is different from others as it is driven by the force of nature.
Some days this depth will make you want to dive right in while other days,
You’ll prefer to drift along the surface.
So you see, this depth, like the ocean, contains many layers
And it should go without saying that there’s more to an ocean than merely the waves.
Life blossoms into full bloom when we least expect it!
In every encounter with the sun,
one must abandon his own notions of freedom
to embrace a new freedom of unrecognizable magnitude.
The sun may fade ere the close of the day,
but the sun will rise brighter with each dawn.
One who is no longer privy to the sun’s light
has fallen so deep into darkness that he can no longer differentiate between the two.
Body of Warmth:
I desire your embrace
whenever I’m lonely and feeling misplaced.
You brighten my mood
with every shade you shine
I crave your warmth
when society leaves me cold
I am a prisoner to your light
through every shining glare
Your colors beguile me
each time you set the sky ablaze
I swoon at the sight of your show
As ever-so effortlessly you appear to glow
You offer such a comforting light
Whenever I’m distraught and can no longer fight
I would be lost without you
do you not know how much I desire to know you?
Oh, body of warmth
how I’ll cherish you forever…
long after I’ve departed my Earthly constraints
Comfort is for cowards.
