Kill The Night

Where are you sun?

Where have you gone?

Will you ever come back?

Night is long and frightening

Sky moonless and achingly dark

Only stars above are twinkling

I can only hear my beating

In my anxious thought

And singing of night birds

I can see the shadow of my mind

Alone in my precarious vault

And the horror of your absence

Why can’t we have a talk?

Us alone at the café

And see if we can talk it out

Why have you abandoned me?

Why can’t you show up?

I’m talking to you, sun

Why can’t you see fear in my eyes?

Why can’t you feel tears in my ducts?

Why can’t you hear silence of my heart?

My heart is terrified with vibe of anxiety

While eyes can testify blind of blackness

You were once here but now you are gone

You’ve now became a memory

A wishful thinking fills our mind

That you’ll again show up

And you’ll beautify the dawn

Other countless suns can’t help

They faintly pretend to shine

But they only can see so near

I wish you were at least here

I wish you were here day and night

Only your warmth touches the bare

Your rays dig deep down under bed

Why can’t your availability last?

Just a little bit longer

Long enough to offer stability

I know I’m being too selfish

Yes, I’m selfish; you should know that too

Here’s my request as a poet

Steal the past all your light

And kill the night

Please kill the night, sun

Take back your throne it took
