I look up
find you smiling at me
clouds of unhappiness hover around
but I push them away
your brightness blinds my senses
as I stretch out my ungrateful hand
reaching into the darkness
intent on capturing your radiance
my darkness meets your luminescence
the glow so bright it burms my fingertips
your warmth flows to my feet, never to leave again
my world is lit, never to be black
my eyes will glimmer from this moment
my smile will gleam from you
rays of brilliance shine through you, into me
I step down from my cloud
I look up and smile
