Dawn & Dusk

There is a sadness
Entrenched in my heart
A bastion of bleakness
A castle of dark

It leeches out poison
In viscous, black fluids
This river of despair
Turns my dreams into ruins

So I made some suns
From candle lights
And sent them on their way
Attached to some kites

The castle laughed
At my myriad of dawns
For when one sun rises
The other ones start to fall

Until one day
The castle cracked
As my faint suns of hope
Showed their true impact
