Longing for the sun

Longing for the sun
written March 6th, 2020

Do vampires long for the sun?

Do they sit in their safe shade
and reach a pale cold finger
towards the brightness of the sun?

Do they dream of standing in the open
faces turned upwards towards a sun so bright
they have to close their eyes?

Do they lift their arms
in sun salutations
adoring the sun?

Do they yearn to feel the sun
touching every inch
of their naked skin?

Do they paint
picture after picture
of worlds filled with sun?

Do vampires long for the sun?

 I am often stuck inside. I go through decades of my life where the only way I get outside is with my hubby. About a year ago, it had rained for weeks. There were 2 days predicted for sun, and hubby was working all of both of them. I cried and shut the blinds and tried to pretend it wasn't sunny out. I just couldn't get outside on my own then. Now, the last poem I posted, was about me actually walking outside, on my own, in the sun and the shadows. I'm not thrilled with the vampire imagery in this poem, but who except maybe a vampire, could understand how badly I wanted to be outside in the sun.

 What a beautiful verse. It's evocative-poignant and yearning. Thanks for sharing it.

 Why can't you go outside by yourself? And what does the sun represent to you?
Elevate me...

Anxiety and agoraphobia. Honestly this is really just about wanting to feel the actual sun, wanting to be outside. This poem is about being outside, and the last poem is about walking outside. Sometimes the sun can represent other things, but it is just something I miss when I'm not getting out.

 the sun is always out
just in other places
in full sun it strongest of all
partly cloudy days the sun comes and goes
cloudy days it there just not to be seen
at night its on the other side of the earth
yet still seen as the stars and moon reflect the day
in summer it is the strongest and longest
in winter it warm the best it can with short day to spend
to stand and face the sun warm your face
to lay out in sun and bake and brown
the sun will always be around.

 Nosferatu. They long for that which they fear
Eternal life in darkness
Shining sun signals their demise
Are we not like our fanged brethren?
Wanting things that lead us to doom
Sex money power all consume from within
Human. Mortal. Vampire. Undead alive
We fear the darkness yet heed the siren call
They scatter when the sun rises yet yearn
For the impossible like we all do
