In Her footsteps

A Poem by NotAproved

My only wish is to be as bright as she was.

My Mom has seen it from the sky because she is the sun. Standing guard over roar of the waters & the crash of mountains. In her Tales of the outside i have heard of these singing rivers and the playful hills. Everything has seen the cloudless vault of heaven rich with Brilliance.

Her Brilliance

She knows the ways to treasure & lost islands she lights them up . So I follow the her and she follows the stars. Us together. I, the moon, and her the sun. When the sun sets and i am alone. The sky is mine.

My earth.

My stars.

On the hazy horizon after she has lower my white flag. Darkness awaits. Shaken .Just me and my shadows hear the course cries of the evils in the murky waters that have waited for light to disappear but I will not let it be dark forever because i was taught to light up the night sky.
