I will become, what I know I am' Michael Jordan


The sky bleeds colour,
In the sun's swansong
In the starry abyys,
It waits to be reborn

The birds rest in the darkness
The wind whistles among the trees
Black's colourless blanket
Unites the earth in peace

Dreams float in the night sky
But the sun comes to life
Turning reality to fantasy
Blurry reminicises of triumph and strife

The Earth bursts into energy
The Fiery Sun burns the darkness
A beautiful unending blue sky
The sun it shines so vivid and harmless

A poem about something that has always captivated me, night and day. I worked particularly hard on this piece
