There is a peace I find with the coming of the dawn
A quite stillness that matches the pale morning
No sun yet to glare no stars to distract
Now I find my self, wondering back

Back to you my love to the mornings when I knew your love
We would lye awake jest past dreaming
Holding each other not yet thinking of the duties that would come with the day

I look back to then and smile still
Are love was new and are harts naive
But we would lye there and whisper of how we hoped it would be

This morning, still predawn is calm, and quite the world not yet awake
So a few minutes I will take and give them to you
We have gone are own ways
Grown up and so apart
I feel no anger no hate
But how I miss those times jest before the world was awake

If I whisper, will you listen?...
I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

raleigh, I haven't been around for awhile and saw your post in the alley... I really liked this piece... my only comments are for the feedback you requested is that I found some spelling mistakes, unless they were intentional.
Atleast that's what I claim... all my spelling mistakes are intentional..  
my guesses would be that..
lye  -- should be lie
jest -- should be just
Are  -- should be our
quite -- should be quiet
this is all the feedback i have, I loved the images in the piece.  

Welcome...

Parker....
