The Sun Was Set to Rise
By hazel basil
My days were bright
sunlight
beautiful
then sun set
and I was left in the night
no stars or moon to light my way
I stumbled
tripped into the thorn bush
I can't see
but I know I'm bleeding and hurt
I wandered in the dark
for so long
I forgot what the light looked like
no stars
no moon to light my path
no one there in the dark
but then
on the horizon
a light
a warm glow
and the sun started to rise
as it rose
I look around me
what was scary in the dark
is much easier to face in the light
and only now I realize
that in our darkest hour
in our darkest night
the dawn will be brightest
and the sun was set to rise
