Set the Controls to the Heart of the Sun

Set The Controls To The Heart Of The Sun
The sun beats down

No longer stinging my eyes

I remember

Long ago

How it used to hurt

When even the smallest ray

Would be excruciating

But now

Over the years

I have grown

Accustomed to

The shine

And neither embrace it

Nor ignore it
