the sun rises

by khadjahelaine

Sometimes life is hard. Very hard. So hard that it feels like you are drowning trying to keep up with its demands. You hold back tears every day you rise to see the Sun. Sometimes you wish it would rise without you.

Still, the Sun rises.

Sometimes life is easy. So easy you can barely feel your face anymore. Cheeks numb. Smile bright. As bright as the rising Sun.

Still, the Sun rises.

Sometimes we need a friend. A shoulder to lean on. Someone to wipe our tears when the burden is heavy. We all need a constant like the Sun. Rising and setting. Rising and setting. Always there, regardless if seen.

Smile brightly, my love.

Unload your fears.

Let me wipe away your tears.

Dance in the heat of the day.

Sway in the calm of the night.

Because the Sun still rises.
