Daylight

Daylight By Kevin Robey July 3, 2013 It’s the start of day when sunshine burns my mind It’s the beginning of hours when sorrow sours Make the moment of clarity leave me blind So I can imagine the sea at the edge of the tower Daylight bursting at the seams, fading are the dreams Of stormy skies where the nightmares were conceived Shadows never cast as your eyes are hit by the beams Reality filters in my mind from light previously unseen If I could only reach a little farther, I could touch the sound Your heartbeat faintly beating in the recesses of my mind Keeping me alive, the same beat to the love we have found Down to the basics now as my emotions slowly unwind The mountain air contains the thoughts you cannot hear One day soon I’ll recount the words that spawned up here I’ll feel empathy for the lost soul trapped in this lonely fear Who reached for your hand only to watch it disappear I wake up from the dream and survey the reality seen I roll to your corner where our smiles no longer hide I laugh as the sunlight bursts through my lonely dreams And into my mind where our realities both collide
