Whisk me away, upon whispering winds

Remove all the sadness, I am feeling within

Under the guise, of a clear, crystal blue sky

Let my soul, ever cloudy, break free and fly

The Sun Also Sinks – #MayWriting – #poetry

A feeling of floating, amidst the clouds

Far, far away from the raucous crowds

Letting it lull me, into a sense of calm

The still of the water, tis my only balm

Mirrored reflections, a light in the dark

A journey unto myself, on this, I embark

And though my soul continues to seek

I realize, I am still one, among the meek

My heart, skips a beat, it longs ever more

For a way to stay, away from the shore

As I watch the day, up above me, shrink

It is then I realize that the sun also sinks

Beyond the horizon, she whispers goodbye

A wave of my hand, and a tear, from my eye

Awaiting the moment, she returns, ever bright

Lighting the heavens, and chasing the night

The sky was a beautiful blue underneath white puffy clouds. I couldn’t help notice how green the landscape had become, after the harsh winter months. Walking along a path, I came across a sign, unmarked, and quite faded. It sent a tingle down my spine, as if it was sending me a message, although, it was surrounded by nettles. I couldn’t get close enough to see where it could send me, no matter how many different angles I approached it from. I could go in any of the directions it suggested, but exactly, where would I be going? Eventually, I decided to go east, to follow the sun, praying I had made the right choice.

 

Decisions to make
Endless possibilities
Ultimately mine

Clouds
Squinting
Against sun
Paint a picture
Of light conquering
Where twilight turns the sky
A deep shade of blue, beaming
Nighttide rolls in where bright once was
Covering the day, shielding our eyes
Until the morning is aglow again
