All my verses covered
With joy unearthed and uncluttered,
Whilst the sun rose, in my mind, again.
Stayed only true
None other than You,
Who bathed my life in life and gain.
But t’was when I fell -
Only then I could tell -
That deep in the well
My emotions robbed my elation
And my strength ran away
With my courage, that fades
Along with the light of day,
As the rain melts my adulation.
Where’s my Sun?
My acid rain consumes me.
Thus I swim in the flood
In my heart,
So deceptive with emotion.
When will see,
That where I drown,
Is just a pond and not an ocean?
Like an endless dream,
I feel your warmth return to me.
Imprison me, Sun;
Heal my sick and set me free.
Then my smile will return
And, to breeze, these hurricane winds turn.
I’ll realize what I knew and never learned:
That it's You who I love and yearn.
