i talk to the sun sometimes
i try to tell it to be good to me
i tell it to hover over me
warm me up
cast down its rays to make me feel the vivacity of life
i try to tell it to turn my feet into roots and make them strong
make me reach up like an evergreen so i can touch it
but, so far im just a girl whose roots are not so strong
and does not understand why people smile when they wake up
or why birds sing in the morning
or why children laugh
or why love is real
but even so
yesterday i talked to the sun
and i asked for light
i stopped asking for strength and love
just light
all i ask for is light
