out of the endless darkness,
the day i begged for
finally happened
the sun came
…
the sun left
i never considered that the day
i see my first sunrise
is the day i see my first sunset

a continuation of a poem i published years ago: ‘the sun’
i was looking at the sky for a while
basking in star light
talking to the moon
i almost forgot it was still night
but the clouds served as a cruel reminder
that i never left the darkness
rather, it never left me
and the sun was never coming up
as far as i can see
the sun is never coming up

for the first time in five years, i experienced happiness. true happiness that lasted 4 weeks. and for the first time in five years, i experienced the loss of happiness. the return to the dark. the sunset.
