Running Towards the Sun

Running towards the sun,
The light is blinding.
Running towards the sun,
The road winding.

Running towards the sun,
I feel the heat of flames.
Running towards the sun,
I feel the burn of shame.

Running towards the sun,
Wings take flight.
Running towards the sun,
And away from the night.

Running towards the sun,
It’s the path least taken.
Running towards the sun,
My past is fading.

Running towards the sun,
I know no other way.
Running towards the sun,
And into better days.
