Traitor Sun
Yearning Sunsets: A Poetic Dance with Longing and Warmth
Lyrics
The brightness kissing my cheek
The brightness of sunlight gently touches my face.
Paving the way for warmth
It creates a path for warmth, symbolizing a positive influence.
Overcoming all with the smoothest heat
The smooth heat of the sun overcomes challenges.
Providing the way from the dark, forth
It provides a way forward, dispelling darkness.
Yet always retreating, here and again
The sun, at times, appears to withdraw or diminish.
I long for the touch of another
The speaker desires the touch of another person.
The sun teases me and I am slain
The sun's teasing nature is compared to the speaker's longing, causing emotional pain.
For I will forever wish to be smothered
The speaker expresses a perpetual desire for emotional closeness.
Time stands still among the breeze
Time seems to stand still, creating a serene atmosphere.
Blocking the heat from the sun
The breeze blocks the intensity of the sun's heat.
Protecting me from the red herring
It protects the speaker from a misleading or distracting element (red herring).
Of the silent terror of that one
The silent terror of an unspecified threat is hinted at.
I remove the glasses with empty fists
The speaker takes off glasses with empty fists, suggesting a futile or ineffective action.
Closing and opening the gate
The speaker repeatedly closes and opens a metaphorical gate.
My heart is locked with bliss
Despite challenges, the speaker's heart is filled with bliss.
Inside is a prisoners hate
Within the bliss, there is a sense of imprisonment or inner conflict.
Yet here I remain
The speaker remains in a difficult situation.
Standing with clenched teeth
The speaker stands with clenched teeth, indicating tension or frustration.
The sun returns again
The sun returns, symbolizing a cyclical nature of challenges and moments of warmth.
And kisses upon my cheek
The sun again kisses the speaker's cheek, perhaps signifying repeated cycles of hope and disappointment.
Maybe this isn't good for us
A contemplative line expressing doubt about the positive impact of the situation.
Well-
An incomplete thought, possibly implying an ongoing struggle or unresolved emotions.
