No Bright and Sunny Days

I wake to find my day begun, it never waits for me. I rise to take my place in it, abandoning my sleep. I hope to find some overcast, a dark and gloomy day. No sun appearing in the sky, with light to give away. For more sunshine I do not need, I have my fill of light. I have a source of daily sun, to dawn my private nights. I have a brilliant radiance, which brings me days brand new. No need for bright and sunny days, I draw my light from you. Written in Afghanistan -21 OCT 2013

"I draw my light from you"- incredibly beautiful verse and really brings the whole poem together nicely. This, too, was a pleasure to read and I enjoyed it immensely. Great write; kudos! :)
