Black Sunshine....

On a whim


Poem Artwork

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Black sunshine
from my eyes..
Darkness of my eyes..
steals the light..
I wonder why..
I am meant to
roam this life..
as if I'm blind..
I can see the light
only in my mind..
A distant illumination ..
Of a life I hope to find..
I try see through
blackness..
But time after time..
I see
Black sunshine..
Shadows on your face..
I can't see yours..
Wonder if you see mine..
Black sunshine all from me..
Wish I could rid my eyes
of this haunting disease..
Black sunshine
Black sunshine..
hides your face..
Black sunshine
Black sunshine
Keeps you away..
It is here to
protect me..
It knows not of
my hearts decay..
From loneliness filled
with darkened days
It only knows
of protection..
My black sunshine..
My fear..
My hostage..
My prisoner..
My only safe place.

Erica,
'My black sunshine..
My fear..
My hostage..
My prisoner..
My only safe place."
This is so felt.
