Sunrise
The moon acquainted the sun
after every dusk
The moon lived in the void
of the sun’s slumber
Only to die every morning
and leave the sun
forever shining
without it
The sun is lonely
who howls to the moon
The shadow of rain drops
clouding it’s light
as solitude devourers it
Leaving it to freeze
The hope for clear skies
was all that ignited
the fire blazing for love
in a world where it thought
it’d find none
The sun loosens the lasso
that cradled the moon
letting it depart
towards the horizon
It never knew
The sun met a mountain
that sparked a song
within her diamond chest
That set fire to the phoenix
whose wings vibrantly burst free
in a vortex of fiery color
The beat of a song
that danced gracefully
with every tune
the wind sang
that warmed the furnace
of the empty heart
that sheltered the sun
The light gazes lazily through her window
cascading over everything precious
that the sun’s touch finds
A comfort to her soul
that only a mountain
could adventure in search for
He gently guided her
down to the gorgeous earth
to present to her
a blossoming field of
midnight flowers
blooming into luminescent stars
which helped guide her
through the oceans of night
The terrors subsided
into the oblivion of light
dissipating into the past
of fallen summer leaves
The sun sat atop the roof
of her own sunrise
whistling a joyous melody
to the passing winds
of a new dawn
