Sun, Hope, Dark, Reality

Our Sun.
Our Sun greets us every morning as we awake tired and yawning
It greets the trees, the morning breeze and the sea
And wakes us up with ease
It surprises the viewers
That think a great future
Will come by itself
As they stare out at the magnificent sunshine.
It is a paradise.

This is our Sun.
My Sun.

But our world is not as it seems,
Amazing and perfect you may think
But it’s like a dark cupboard full of webs
Just never been cleaned
Just like the problems in the world that need mending
Racism, homelessness, poverty, inequality,
We see our world as full of joy and sun
But these are the truths to our world.

Our Sun.
Is not as perfect as it seems.
