My Sunshine

I am not alone.

When all the faces I know,

Into a hazy blur,
Seamlessly merge,

Up I look and see you,

Your beautiful crystal clear,
Like a summer day,

Your smile like sunshine in the rain.

In the dreary winter of my life,

You're the fire that
That warms the chill in me.

In a world simmering hatred,

You are love.

In my confusion,

You are clarity.

In the discord around me,

You are rhythm.
