Never have I seen a sunset in reverse,
Light returning from the west horizon,
The world resurrected.
The sun striving for life just a little longer
The universe allowing another chance at that day
To make it count,
To make it worth recurring,
Then again,
I’ve never seen a sunrise.

When I was 9,
I stopped fearing the monster under my bed.
So he shrank down in size.

He climbed up my bed
and crawled in an ear
now he lives within me
renamed ‘things I fear’.

— The End —
