Poem
With the break of dawn, as I watch you sleep, ... sun peeks in.... with gentle fingers on your face.... The morning wakes again, ..and day begins, ... ours to linger in,... close within love's arms....... Tomorrow seems a distant place, too far to see from here, Our yesterdays will fade somehow, like faces in the crowd But wrapped in warmth of midnight's arms, are moments that allow to keep me high up in the clouds, on a stairway to the sun I've caught you with your guard down, dreams I cannot know I'm bound by love, as blinding as the morning's afterglow The new day keeps a promise, catching you asleep I see the jealous sun caress, but, ..you are mine, alone, to keep Your sleeping face, reveals to me... that time and space stands still And what I feel, ........I know is real........may nothing break the spell I feel my breath escape, and watch you breathing soft and low in afterglow, of night's embrace, ...when midnight's promised words were vows Interlude melody.............. Shadows flirt across the bed, but I know you dream of me I watch you sleep, as the sun peeks in, with warmer undertones.... In the blushing light, of the night's embrace, are vivid afterglows Across the bed, the light grows bold, and turns the red to gold Tomorrow seems a distant place, too far away,.... too far to see from here, Our yesterdays are vanished stars, lost traces in the clouds But wrapped in warmth of midnight's arms, where moments have allowed to keep me high up in the clouds, on a stairway to the sun High away........high away.........high away on a stairway to the sun High away.......so very high away........high away, there beyond the sun Take me there........take me there........ high away.........so high away.... Take me past the sun, to that place, to that place within your dreams so high away.........high beyond the sun _______________________________________________________ 8/11/14 For Contest Sponsored By Craig Cornish "Another Song Lyric" Written to the music of Peter White's "Life Story"
