My Sun
January 31, 2012
His name is Aaron.
It's his hugs,
tightening around my waist
every time he sees me.
He is my sun
in a sky of darkness.
His name is Carson.
It's his eyes.
When he looks directly,
at me,
and I can see the joy
hidden beneath the skin.
He is my sun
in a sky of darkness.
His name is Andrew.
It's his smile,
so hard to find,
but worth the wait.
He is my sun
in a sky of darkness.
He is disabled.
He is 10.
He is 8.
He is 12.
He finds joy
in life.
I find joy
in him.
He teaches me to find
the little joys in life;
the joys that brighten
my sun.
