Rays of Light
My eyes are closed
The sun is out
Though I’m still enclosed
I can hear them shout
I look out to the rising sun
It looks back with a batch of faces
The burdens holding me down feel like a ton
They look at all my empty spaces
Why do I get up?
The faces look down on me
Like different rays of light
Why do they torture me
Will this make things right
Why do I get up?
Once their shine pierces my skin
I notice the lack of pain
The warmth causes me to grin
With every smile I feel no strain
Should I get up?
Every ray represents a friend
All different colors appear
Their light has no end
True happiness has never been so clear
Should I get up?
These faces give me motivation
Only with their shine can I rise
They make my life have innovation
The warmth I feel is my ultimate prize
This is why I get up
