S U N R I S E

I waited for the sun to rise. All night it seemed. Because that's the way it works; the sunrise brings the morning. And I waited for it all night long. Because I was scared. And I was cold. And because I know that the sunrise promises warmth and calmness. Because even if the sunrise doesn't bring a warm day, it brings the sun. And even if the sun hides it's face behind the clouds, the rising of the sun brings a new day. And a new day brings clarity. And then I can remember, when my mind is clear, that there's nothing to be afraid of.  And I will feel calm. And I will be warm again.
