Sunny September

I spent some time in the darkness
Completely alone in my room
Cuz you weren’t there, it seemed like the air
I breathed was scented with gloom.
But something in my heart decided
That this just would not do.
And so I remembered the sunny September
That I spent with you.

I walked around in a cloudy haze
Of memories I could not dismiss
It seemed that so much of all that I touched
Felt like your sweet tender kiss
But something in my heart decided
That this just would not do.
And so I remembered the sunny September
That I spent with you.


Times can be cold and dry
Or they can shine

We can choose the light that surrounds us
Live in the day or die in the dark 
The sweetness that lingers like dust on our fingers
Rekindles that special spark
So something in my heart decided
Living with sadness won’t do
And so I remember that sunny September
That I spent with you.

I’ll always remember that sunny September
That I spent with you

Sunny September

There is a difference between resistance and resilience. In today's contentious times, we need to be resilient.
