To See the Crying Sun

Behind the glass I gaze at the sky

So far away but feeling as though it’s just out of reach

I go outside to feel its breath

The sky is filled with whites and the lightest of blues

The sun a blinding white right in front

From the sky falling tears of white

Cold and lonely as they kiss my face

The tears of the sun sprinkle my hair

The sun mourns that I must be cold for its sake

It shines its light on me

Pure and white

As the memory of its tears fall into place

I will not forget the sun’s great sadness

The chilling loneliness it showed me this day

Beautiful and fragile just as the snow

That gently caresses my face

And as loving and sad as the light

Slowly filling my soul

The Sun was a blinding white and the sky the lightest blue, and you can’t quite see it but there’s snow falling as well — this was the moment that inspired this poem.
