you were like the sun to me
you shined so bright
you gave me life

you were like the sun to me
I revolved around you, I held on strong
although our attraction didn't last long

you were like the sun to me
you kept me warm for days and weeks
although at night, the darkest of times

you were nowhere to be seen

happiness was like the sun: hiding behind clouds of misery
anxiety was like thunder: loud and obnoxious

and hope, like lightning: it appeared for just a moment
before I could acknowledge it, it was gone

a storm only to be noticed by me
appearing in the depths of my mind

I build you up
with my own building blocks
bits of my heart, pieces of my soul

slowly crumbling down
losing myself as a whole
seeing you rise
but ignoring my fall
