The Sun

The heat

I feel the radiation searing my shoulders

It burns but still I stand:

You bring me life 

Why does life hurt so much:

Then in distance it finally starts to go down 

I see his shadow 

I know he's to see me but still I can't help but pop a smile 

He's been my friend for years and I don't think he knows how much that means

Now I feel a different heat 

The sun has gone down but I'm warmer than I was before

This warmth doesn't burn but it soothes:

A single tear rolls down my cheeck and through it my whole face is warmed

He reaches me and says hello

And I am happy

It doesn't matter how far gone the sun is with him I'll always be warm
