Memories

silent slumber, 
peaceful tranquility 
the sun pours in 
raining down on my
 gaunt and pallid skin
its so livid, so bright
nothing like this has 
ever filled my sight
melting away the clouds 
that darken this day 
pulling back the rain 
that causes one's dismay 
its as if my skin glows like a light
becoming much to hot
soon it's burning, like an open flame
my every muscle
cringes away from the pain
the sky remains open
burning thoroughly 
this heat is intense 
more than one can ever see
as i close my eyes
the light leaves
i see you behind the lids
guiding me with such ease 
its as if we back to being kids

Corazon means dear to heart in Spanish, Am I right? I have a friend in Colombia who used to say this word often
