Brighter Days
Morning rain and afternoon storms
Today yearns for yesterday's sun
Yesterday, bright and balmy, dreams
Of a year of summer
I once lived in the sun
But today with the gentle tears
Of a rain shower
Today cries itself to sleep
As night closes in
I am the moon and the morrow
I was yesterday, but am now today
The sun no longer shines on me
Dark days and a deluge of rain
But I still remember the sun,
I remember the dream
And what could have been
So, I cry with the rain
And dream of brighter days
Today yearns for yesterday's sun
Yesterday, bright and balmy, dreams
Of a year of summer
I once lived in the sun
But today with the gentle tears
Of a rain shower
Today cries itself to sleep
As night closes in
I am the moon and the morrow
I was yesterday, but am now today
The sun no longer shines on me
Dark days and a deluge of rain
But I still remember the sun,
I remember the dream
And what could have been
So, I cry with the rain
And dream of brighter days

Dear S,
I like how you’ve incorporated the positive in the title even when the dark days seem and feel endless. Emotions and feelings that are very relatable in this piece you’ve expressed wonderfully. H🌷
