The following sentences will probably make no sense but that’s what happens when I get hardly any sleep but want to watch the sunrise because #priorities. More or less this is the train of thought I had this morning.
Apparently the wilkes Barre sky likes to do this thing in the mornings right before sunrise. The sky gets the softest shade of pink and it forms a band, leaving some of the blue along the horizon. The pink just becomes so subtle on the eyes, like a secret glance to the one you love when they aren’t looking. Slowly but surely the street light goes out and the sky illuminates the day, giving the world a new reason for life. The cars drive by a little bit faster, just like the heart beat of a person just waking up.
But soon enough the pace slows down just slightly. The sky just gets a little bit brighter and your eyes adjust. The pink blends with the blue ever so slightly, giving a tint of lavender just gracing the horizons edge. Soon enough, the day’s star will grace the stage.
Blues and yellows and pinks and purples. All somehow coexisting within this weird scene of nature. I’ve seen shooting stars, sunshine during the rain and some man made wonders but there’s just some untouchable magic about the morning sunrise. The way you can just feel the anticipation for a new day deep within your bones.
It’s the same scene. The same pattern. The same cycle of life. The night turns into day and we all carry on. And yet every day is a new adventure. A new shade in the color palette that fills our lives. No two days are the same just as the feeling of watching the sunrise isn’t.
The world slowly wakes up to take on this new day. The last tendrils of the night before slip away into beautiful bright hues that one wouldn’t expect in this rain plagued little corner of home. The sun peaks from wherever the hell it rises and the sky’s darkness is almost completely gone. Like a switch, or seeing your boss when you were supposed to be doing some sort of work, everything changes and everything seems to be right.
A new day is here. I suppose dealing with my workload could wait just a bit longer to enjoy this moment.
