I envy the children of sunlight

The children

of  sunlight

are at peace

unlike myself

My mother tried molding me out of the sun

 but I was instead carved out of her mistakes 

I'm a clear reflection of my mother's failures 

I am a hole in the heavens, beaming black light

I'm a rip in the society

The children

of sunlight

are at peace

While I'm the daughter of the dark

fighting grief


I'm sorry that I've failed those children

but I've been cut out of pain 

I envy those who've been molded out of happiness 

Instead, I've been sculpted from unwanted tears

 I am a scar in the sky,

a lost piece in the atmosphere

waiting to be found

 but unfortunately, I've been forgotten

I envy the children

of  sunlight

because they are at peace 

unlike myself
