Bashful

There are sun

rises and sets

so achingly beautiful

you replay them

behind your eyelids

even as they fade away.

They glitter there

like a movie scene

a reminder of

the beauty that the sun

in her perpetual radiance

is sometimes bashful to

boast of.

They say sun kissed

because the sun leaves

behind its love

on your skin, on your eyes.

When the twilight dawns

and the moon graces

our dark skies

the greatest love story

is how the sun refuses to

abandon our skies.

Leaving behind its love,

everywhere.
