The Sun

Is it cold, like the moon?
Will I see it whole
Or will one side always be dark?
Hidden?
Cold?
Distant?
Is the sun blue and dark?
Is it dark and lonely?
Will it dry my tears?
Will it dissipate my fears? 
Will it chase away the storm?
Will it keep me company when I’m alone?
Will it play with me when I need a friend?
Will it scare away the shadows?
Will it frighten away the monsters,
The ones in my head?
Will it hold me warm and tight?
Will it burn away the bad
And replace it with its light?
When I need a friend to talk to,
Will it lend an active ear?
When I have to be on my own,
Can I count on it being close by?
If I let it in, will it hurt me?
Will it play with my heart and mind?
Will it care when I am sad?
Please, tell me it will not lie.
I wonder about the sun
And its brilliant light. 
I wonder
Could it share a little with me
To save me from the night?
