Corona

1. Here I stand, alone again
Don’t remember how or when
All I know to be clearly true
Is the sky I bask in is no longer blue

2. It happened as quick as a gust of the wind
But the pain set too slowly and darkened within
I searched the fields of gold in dismay
Never to find my love of the day

3. She too had set as did the night
With the moon she was gone forever out of sight
I had pondered why she had turned away
I had given her too much of my very own day

4. She had longed for something more than my unconditional rays
She had prayed for the experience of the cloudy, tempest days
The gift of pure cleansing was one I could not provide
All I was capable of was unconditional light

5. I hated myself for not being more diverse
I was sick of this blessing which was now more of a curse
Together I could not be with the silver queen of night
One I could not be with the roots beneath my light

6. Who am I to be with if my light brings me no love?
For what is there to shine upon if I’m alone in the sky above?
I too have a heart, though I may not know this
For as long as I am part of love I can never know true bliss

7. I can not know what I am as long as I am whole
To know the relative within my light will now be my new goal
Perhaps I must journey far from what I know
I must venture where only God Himself has loved enough to go
