sun

A Poem by Candace

i sat in the sunshine
for the first time in awhile
it was nice for the moments i endured
now my skin is burned
and the mosquitoes bit
was it worth what i feel now
i'll remember the day until i heal
close my eyes and see purple static
my pale skin has had it
like being with him
marking his territory
bruising my skin with his lips
jealous boy be a man
i'll remember that kiss until i heal
squeezing my hand as he holds it
i just need some reciprocation 
i long for the sun again
