The Sun Rises
Luis Jimenez
Only once every day
can you watch the sun rise,
out of fields in the east
and over mountains in the west-
only once every day
can you watch the sun rise.
Are you cliché like me?
Do you look up at the moon-
in hopes that a person you love,
is looking up at it too?
Those feelings are valid-
you’re not alone,
we have more in common
than you currently know.
So save a moment to gaze up,
at the star that we share-
for time shows no mercy
to those that don’t care.
After all only once every day,
can you watch the sun rise.
