Asking Too Much

opening to the sun
i feel the brightness
fill my face

growing
pulling life
like water from
the ground

ah, the greatest joy
to smile
and feel the sun
return
my gesture

reaching for the
unattainable visage
rooted in the earth
and wishing for stars

imagine the journey
but you'd only burn
trying to embrace
the sun

:)
