I Am

by Poua Lor

I am the sun

that dries the rain

but when I get covered by clouds

I try to find my way

but its too dark.

I'm not trying to play hide and seek

this isn't a game,

I disappear at night and come

back when it's morning

I make people cry when they

stare at me.  I burn.  Now it is dark

I say good bye.

Shhh...

I'm trying to sleep.

The moon has come to take my place.
