I dream sometimes of a soul locked in a second,
you wanted to see the sun forever, didn't you?
You got your wish granted - how come you're crying?

We search and we find, once found things generally become a dissapointment. Poor creature.
Brilliant write. -
Dang, for 30 words --which I find very difficult-- this was stunning! Poetry is such a beautiful art, but when you articulate a great message and/or thoughts within a certain amount of space, I think that's when the read talent shines through! Good luck in your contesto!
