Dawn

 

In the morning

I think of you

On my rising

When daylight is new

On the air outside

Is the fragrance of dawn

Lingering into the day

its memory plays like the notes of a song

 

All that is missing this morning is you

I want you here by my side

Standing here in this sunrise

 

Though my eyes

Are still swollen from sleep

And my bedcovers warm me so downy and deep

I am aware of a vacancy here

This morning so beautiful bags for you here

 

Why aren’t you here with me?

Here by my side-

You belong by my side

 

I need you baby….
