~A Valley Flooded with Light (sonnet)

.

If I could just blame it on the shadows,
maybe I could forget about the rain.
Am I all alone in this universe?
Is the sun ever going to rise again?

With just one thought I can think that it’s so,
to create a valley flooded with light–
To chase ev’ry shadow down to the sea,
to watch them swim away into the night.

Half the world thrusts money into my hand,
while all I need is right behind my eyes.
–Little pockets of Heaven lined with gold,
I’m giving away my excess supplies.

I’m trading shadows, replaced with new light.
There are better days, so bring on the night.
