the sun's dreadful owner

the sun's dreadful owner

A Poem by Richard

the sun's dreadful owner
is something of a sin

really, the heat could singe the thread

that keeps us together

and any moments had could prove

and the courier cloud runs as fast as it can

no water retention

and as I can fairly tell

there's a deep misunderstanding in our hearts

no better heard than said not to bother

slowing down to look

for a change

irrational i dream is an answer

because the sun also burns

accidents great and wild still happen

and my tail is known to burst into flame

like my heart, when a song

is either cruel or cruelly honest

and flowing beautifully in a pond

i recognize as your letting go

and even swimming thinking the shore is close

it must be

but the sun

is dreadfully cold when it forgets it's place

and the desert I knew

still there

just emptier

and but I don't know

where to go when i'm in pain

but sweating out my fears

hydrates the land

you grew with love

are you happy?
