Sun....

Lyrics © 2007. Song © 2025

Written in 2007 in Mozambique. My never-ending quest for integration. Maybe I will get there one day 🤷🏻‍♀️


Sun...
It’s me, your Lady
my faith in Summer coming is fading
waning
like my Light
flickering pale

could you not send me a sign?
a robin would do
or some kind of map
across the dark places to you

or can you not forgive me my detours
I thought you'd understand
sometimes
when it’s cold and grey
and you're a stranger
in a dark and lonely land
it’s easy to take a wrong turn
when you just want to reach home
and you have no idea where home is
but eventually you learn its where the Light is
and its toasty golden warm, but first!
you have to survive the storm

wind and snow almost bury you,
though in a strange, heartbreaking way
it’s beautiful too
in that wild winter free
just me
and the Hope of You

to find my way in the Night
I needed Light
what a mission!
unpacking and unpeeling
years of not caring, not feeling
to the door marked
"no entry"
where standing sentry
is Enemy Number 1
with combat boots and loaded gun
My Self has hijacked my Soul
and only I can set it free,
my Self, my Soul
and
Me?

my poor Self!
standing guard outside the door
for so long
until I came to spring clean
on a faint promise of summer
no company just Night
but She kept to her post
knowing I would eventually venture down 
when it was time to brave the dark
So, yes, we stumble through the Lost Years
the Dark Ages
ghosts sobbing in the dark,
can't breathe,
but She keeps me strong
fear is trailing me,
icy, gut-wrenching terror
oh God who art in heaven
my father?
where are You?
