Day and Night

By: Bryan Li

The bright, warm sun rays

Beam through the window cracks,

Waking you up for another day

That was never guaranteed

The usual first sip of coffee,

of toast and eggs,

Relieve your hunger and thirst,

After a good night’s rest

The day goes by,

Second by second,

Minute by minute,

Hour by hour

The sun sets,

Leaving an array of colors,

And soon,

the blue hour comes

Night falls,

Not a single sound,

You drag yourself into bed,

For, hopefully, another day
