Let Me Be Your Sunshine

[ScarletMornings]

My days were the same
pretty and sunny
or rainy and cool
but always predictable
and I never really meant anything
to anyone

Then one day
it changed
the sky turned gray
like it did some days
but the sun never came out
like it usually did
it was just dark
chilly
and it was stormy

You strolled into town
like you owned the place
the storm at your back
the wind and the rain
in your midnight hair
not a trace of light in you

And suddenly
I wanted to mean something
to someone
and you were just so challenging
an enigma with your darkness
no light in your eyes
the windows to your soul
the shades were pulled, I guess

You moved in the night
so mysterious
with your dark eyes
and your dark soul
and you were haunted
even as you haunted
the dark
the rain
the storm
you were the night

And then it wasn't about me
it was about you
with your midnight ways
your abscence of light
and I wanted to be
the light in your eyes
the sunshine
when your skies were gray
your daylight

So I came to you
in your nighttime
in your storm
and begged
to be your sunshine
I wanted to be the one
who lit up your eyes
those black velvet eyes
the one who shone
during the storm
and chased away the shadows
at night

My only goal
was to brighten you
bring back the light
calm the storm
warm the rain
lighten the dark
and change the night
to the day

So all I ask is
let me be your sunshine
let me mean something
to someone
to you
your sunshine

Such a great poem!!!

My fav stanza is:
And suddenly
I wanted to mean something
to someone
and you were just so challenging
an enigma with your darkness
no light in your eyes
the windows to your soul
the shades were pulled, I guess

but maybe some of the begining stanzas aren't as strong as the rest of the poem... just the first couple i think could maybe be altered in wording slightly?
