it’s getting quite, cold and dark
and I’m alone in this room

true, I never came with instructions
but everyone knows
that flowers need sunlight to grow
they need ample room to flourish
and they need good soil to stay strong

so why was I placed in this
quite, cold dark room?

I miss the sun- I long for it
the warmth
the comfort
I bask in its godly light
I soak it in and it fills me up

Dear sun, when I’m in your presence
I flourish in ways unseen to me
I grow- my colors become brighter
I no longer wilt
so when i am starved of you
starved of my muse
starved of my light
and placed in the cold, dark and quiet room
I feel like I might never see you again
my dear sun
for all my light
all my hope goes away
and I will wilt
until one day I will perish
or I might come back again
when I feel the fullness of your rays

Dear sun,
I can’t wait to feel your warmth again
