The sun rains down to pierce the clouds,
To reflect its radiance on the surface.
I stood and walked to be closer,
Yet it passed me quickly, given its slow pace.
Struggled to follow the path it took,
To gain its glory upon my palms.
Finally, it stopped,
Giving chance to my oblivious desires.
Its magnificence danced, hoping to hold it,
So that each ray will fill me up,
With insurmountable joy that dreams only knew.
Yet I couldn’t.
Like a mirage, it teasingly escaped,
Concealing itself behind the skies it once pierced.
Desperation fueled me to pursue it again,
Shattering the borders along the way.
But it’s impossible.
Incapacitated, I knelt,
Breaking down at the ground it touched.
Tried to feel its presence amidst its clear absence.
I screamed with the great frustration,
While I cried with utter defeat.
I could never have what I want,
Like I could never have you.
