Sunrise Ahead

I try my best to comfort my soul when the night grows with a pessimism

Night is long

Like the series of sad songs

Nursing my soul

Feeding my sentiments

How they lull my anguished moments

Of when I listen to my silence

Resonating in circles

In my mind are fervent ripples

 

There is life here

That walk and run the tight rope

I precariously grasp a little hope

Like the palms betrayed by the sand

I lose and become empty

 

But I can always close my eyes

Until I feel no rain all over my face

And here are the new days

Waiting for me at the front door

Believing I’ll be back home

 

Because there’s that sunset

A plaintive picture forever

And yet of all the sad things to linger

There’s a promise in that horizon

The sunrise will take over soon
