Shades like the dark shades under your eyes
are shades like the shades
created by a tree under a sunny day.
They are where I find solace.
I look at your face and the shades are there.
I’m ill. Almost succumbing to the light.
But I look at your face and the shades are there.
They are where I take rest.
They are where I find strength.
Mom,
Shades like the dark shades under your eyes
are what are keeping me alive
Shades like the dark shades under your eyes
are where I rather stay.
It is with you where I find solace.
