You Are The Sun

I led a plain existence until I met you

Walking through life blind and afraid

A moth to the flame of each boring encounter

Looking everywhere

Finding nothing

Blinding lights of dreams never furthering

Held back by fears of things unseen

I walked backward

Looking everywhere

Finding nothing

Black starless nights I spent

Alone on the beach

Waiting for a sign of light from the heavens

Looking everywhere

Finding nothing

Giving up I placed my heart in unseen hands

I took into my thoughts the presence of happiness

I accepted my glooming fate

Looking everywhere

I then found you

My sky is full of stars now

My moths are butterflies in my stomach

and you are the sun in a lightless world…
