Sun Wishes

Sunlight enters through the distant dirty window As the afternoon calls eagerly from behind the glass Work knows I am bound, but yet I am dreaming Of the departure from this destitute cell, at last I wake each morning unto the moon’s blanket Never walking through the day with its glaring sun Oh, to dream of leaving to see and feel the sunlight But, yet it descends and the moon again has won For winter days of work allow no time for the sunshine Only mornings filled with darkness and nighttime the same But, I dream of being out among the many in daylight Lauding the sun on my face, while screaming acclaim
