Sunburn

"...Be it numb or dumb, we partake in the fun that leads us astray for not reason(s), but one...we aim for a prize with hope in our eyes, unwilling to see it's a curse in disguise....so we take the trail we know will fail just to say we did, but to no avail.....So tell me it's worth forgoing the birth of reason and solice on this tiny planet 'Earth'....I'll stay right here and wait for return...the sun that shines so very worth the burn...

...As the heat warms limbs, the true journey begins, for sunshine is like pruning...what is irrelevent; gets trimmed.

...No more nights trying to stave off the chill, for once a heart warms it's indifferent to ills. I can hope and pray that the sun will stay, but the true test begins when I cast worry astray....I must walk in shade, the downtrodden parade, but keep that light...for in it's image you were made.

...Sunburn, sunburn...the heat that breeds life, I wish only to burn off this strife. I'll forgoe the cold that resides in my soul, for the freezing inside is losing control...it wants me back, I can feel it's grip...please warm the each step so that I won't slip...if it's too much to ask, I'll patiently wait...for I see the sun through this straightened gate...it never sets which is so nice to see...I rarely see light, well, inside me. So sunburn, sunburn....hear my plea's...hear the echo's radiating in me, hear them and shine with light too bright...too bright is just right, in perpetual night.
