The Brightest Day

I dont know how it happens,

The timeline might be different

For you,

But I woke up this morning,

To clouds so large, they hid a fluorescent

Full moon,

The lights at the park that come on

When the sun is too dim

To sense

Were still on at 10am

When they should have been off

At six,

And, yet, it was the brightest day

That I have seen

In months,

I picked up my phone and texted friends

And I didn't even think

Of him once,
