I watch the sun rise
June 12, 2021
I watch as the sun rises, a new day
The greenery stings my sleep-deprived eyes
Breathe in air untainted by our vices
Unlike that one time many years ago
When we were both lost in a parking lot
At nightfall, out of all the times we could
I thought that was what being traumatised was
However, I was wrong on more than one
Point as my trauma was hidden in me
Luckily, it did not last very long
As my eye bags prove, nights are rather sleepless
And yet the rising sun has proven that
Insecurities are not the end of
The world as we know it, not on a stage

This first poem of mine on this site is actually about how nervous I am when it comes to posting poetry, and even if it goes wrong, the Sun will still rise…how ironic.
