Sunrise

Have you ever seen the sun rise?

Witnessed with your own two eyes?

Watching exactly how it went?

Not through someone else's photo captured moment

You'll really enjoy it more if you view it live

& you'll appreciate just being alive

 

I've watched the sun rise countless mornings

It's like my own private showings

Each one completely different in every way

& the best way to start any day

They're bright & beautiful

Breatakingly blissful

 

You'll never feel the same once you've experienced it

& so many will never understand the feeling you get

It's hard to explain but I'll do my best

I'd imagine it's like fresh air deepily inhaled into your chest

Your lungs fill up with all the freshness

& you exhale all that causes you stress

 

Your worries all just disappear

Your mind is calm & clear

It's a feeling that just forever stays

Until your dying days

Joy & happiness is all you release

It is what brings you inner peace

 

All you care to do now is enjoy everything

No matter the troubles & obstacles life may bring

A happy soul is all you've got & need

Your heart has compassion & optimism is what you bleed

Sharing your smile with all you pass or whoever you meet

That is your favorite way to say hello & greet

 

All from experiencing a live sun rise happen

That all may seem impossible to imagine

All that out of just a sun rising?

When it happens to you, it IS quite surprising

Shocking at first, you just can't believe how you feel

& you wonder how can this even be real?

 

If you allow yourself to let go of your worries & any doubt

Then you make room to clearly feel what it's about

You're allowing yourself to be vulnerable

& that's when you become more relatable

Clearing your clouded mind of opinions from useless chatter

Let's you finally enjoy what most may think or say doesn't really matter

 

Those are the ones who don't pay a lot of attention

& are afraid to get lost in their imagination

Never will they set a foot out of their "safe" box & risk crossing that thin line

It's OK, it's their loss & that's just fine

They'll just never understand your constant positive attitude

& can't recall a time you were even the slightest bit rude

 

They will never know how to just live happily

Inside their soul will be dying slowly

Some won't see how beautiful a sun rise really is

It's something no one should ever miss

A sun rise & even a sun set

Are too amazing to just forget!!
