"Good morning sunshine", he said

as day broke through.

But I'm not light.

I'm darkness and shadows,

and what nightmares are made of.

I wish I could radiate love,

but hurt has swallowed my heart. 

I wish my smile could shine bright,

but pain has dulled my soul.

It's a lovely sentiment

comparing me to the sun.

But I'm not light.

I am anything but.
