Let The Sunshine In (Blooming Into The Future II)

Description

Let the sunshine in (blooming into the future II)

From child birth to Hearses,
Life lived between the two
With a heart that’s cursed with…

The yearning for another,

A feeling of greater love than
the one for yourself, sister or brother.
I considered it a weakness…
But that was once upon a time,
It was like giving riches to someone
Who solely depends on crime.

They’re not used to something so true.
Unbeknownst to a single phrase;
The popularised “I love you”.

I would shower, and shower
Till they can’t take my storm no more,
Gestures sweet like cherry plums
But they quickly soured my core.

Unfaithful to me,
Ungrateful to I,
Storming this world with vengeance,
Lust now only in my eye,

A beast unveiled himself to the world
And the world of under is what greeted him,
Had many concubines conquered
But still felt empty, deep within…

Till a fair maiden had noticed,

Was it love at first sight upon the horizon
Or a sick game from the Gods,
With life being how it was
One couldn’t help but think what are the odds?

As they gazed into the soul of one another
The mist of doubt quickly departed.
And rays of hope kissed him from the sky.
And clouds from heaven
Filled with pain, quickly
began to cry…

Tears of joy..

So the beast, who was no longer that, quickly let go of lustful sin,
His heart, shall beat forever more
Because love reminded him
to always let the sunshine in.
