sometimes i am a
relentless, untiring,
wave ebbing and
flowing to the
shore, back and
forth, back and
forth.
but today i am
transforming and
evaporating from
the sea to the
sky, yes, i have
surrendered and
turned myself into
a possessive sun.
kindness and
attention are
now my rays that
i won’t let you kiss and
have anymore for
i am tired, tired, tired,
of going back
and forth, back
and forth, without
receiving what i
always give.
love.

Sadness and tiredness has happiness and loving yourself just around the corner. That’s why I see it as a positive thing. Feeling sadness and anger will eventually lessen. And someday the sun will shine bright again.
