It is morning, But the sun hasn’t come up yet-- I’ve still got time to decide What this day will hold. I can resign myself To mending this broken heart With which you’ve left me, Comforting this disappointed spirit Which has been me lately. Or, I can decide to keep walking-- Leave you behind completely Before you have taken yet another day. Over the horizon Peek the most breathtaking hues, Indicating the break of day-- I haven’t much more time. I’ve been fighting you off For much too long-- It is finally time to stop allowing you Each and every hour of my day. These clouds should belong to me; These stars should be shared With someone who holds them As dearly as I. Relief seems so far away, But the time is approaching For the sun to find its way Above that water line. Never leave me, never go... I need you here, I need to know... You will always be Close to me |

I can smell the sunrise coming in this one to brighten your day. What a powerful write my friend. Don't let someone slow you down if they are not really into it. Only slow down to enjoy the moments with those that truely appreciate the time with you. Loved it. If you find yourself stranded in a storm ...then reach for my hand and we will play in the puddles together |
