You, the Sun, the Power

YOU, THE SUN, THE POWER The sun rushes quickly over trees and boulders across rivers and fields of different blooming flowers it knows not shadows or shade it comes to my doorstep and halts The sun, the beast, rushes to attack the weak and sickly pale perking sad lovers alabaster pallor brightening peoples lives When your life goes rotten on you there’s nowhere to turn remember you are the power you hold the keys to the kingdom You carry the key of love to the world you are the warrior you are the answer to all questions you are the alpha and omega of you And the planet you live on you have a brain to think, use it but think constructively build for all people not to create chaos The dictators may roar like lions but it is you who rides the gazelle to the horizon but the lover lives to tame the beast and ride the gazelle across the sky to the future Love, only Love, will conquer the beasts of life Lovers will always choose Love as the weapon "The world is yours and everything that’s in it," the poet said "If you can keep the beast at bay," said another To love, to befriend, to be kind, to give, to show benevolence, to move life forward to a more fruitful future or to kill and destroy all we know, to oblivion ... It's our choice.
