Sun Blindness

Sun Blindness

 

The sun doesn’t always

come up smiling. Sometimes,

sometimes it rises with fire

on its breath

and burns a hole in your chest

where your heart use to be.

Sometimes the sun’s so hot, so bright

it leaves you without sight.

 

I know this is true

cause for a while,

I was blinded by you.

WOW....one of my very favorite songs from way back when and the words you have written complement that song so perfectly, Curt. The sun, just like love, is not always a good thing. Sometimes it hurts....it burns and leaves a scar. Oh so nice. Lydi**

Oh, this stings.
The sun can definitely bring tears to the eyes.
It's not all comfort and joy.

thanks Ana, I know that Springsteen song says the sun is where the fun is, but I have learned that a good pair of polarized sun glasses allows you to look and only get singed a bit... ;0)

nice that you stopped by Ana

Welcome! :)

when the heart gets blinded...sunglasses are useless---we close our eyes and jump in with both feet---feeling the heat, joyously.

it's true we do jump, to hell with that fire... the jury is still out on the "joyously" though... thanks Jacob for your comment and thoughts...

An all-too common occurrence when it comes to relationships. Those fires can emanate from passion yet still leave one burned. Red flags are often overlooked as well.

yes too common Relic, I even sleep with my sun glasses on just in case.... lol... thank you for your insightful review Relic
