Begging the Sun- Pt. 1
I found myself begging for the Sun to shine,
To radiate its warmth into my soul
And grace my skin with the blessing of her kiss.
As I begged and begged,
The Sun refused to reveal herself to me.
Instead, She hid behind the clouds
As the rain washed everything
But my sorrows away.
My days became darker than midnight
My body felt weaker than my spirit
And I lost sight of the light that existed before.
I asked the Sun and I asked Her some more,
I asked Her with both knees on the floor.
Once again the Sun refused me
Then I finally understood
That the Sun
In all Her glory
Doesn't deserve these strict expectations.
She deserves to be:
Loved when She chooses to share her light;
Missed when She chooses to hide
Adored when She shares her affection
Cherished when She gives at all.
The Sun is expected to give Her all
While we selfishly take Her gifts
Then complain that She is too much.
An ode to my depression
