Deceptive Sun

it was the sun that deceived me streaming through my bedroom window inviting me outside promising warmth and a glorious day it was your smile that deceived me smoothly spouting sweet sentiments brightening my day encouraging me to discover love in light it was the sun that deceived me bathing the skin in golden luminescence as though beauty can be bred from beaming rays it was your eyes that deceived me lavishing hollow reflections of luster blazing into my own shining me on with a glimmer it was the sun that deceived me gifting the world appearance of radiance illuminating the sky with picture perfect blue magnificence it was your arms that deceived me encompassing me in solace proffering trust calming my angst with a simple embrace it was the sun that deceived me invigorating my confidence infecting inspiration exuding energy and exuberance it was your heart that deceived me fervently pounding and feverish reverberating my pulse harmonizing with my misguided soul it was the sun that deceived me luring me outside I braced for warmth but was met only by dark shadows wind whips cold blasts stinging my face the only heat exists within my burning heart it was the sun that deceived me
