Ghost Town Sunrise
The night was so cold the wait was too long
Winds pierced my dead body with a blues song,
now echoing thoughts up and down my spine,
of our time when your touch was all just mine.
My eyes were sore and closed from lonely life
Pain memories of a goodbye ran rife
Shadows drew edged pictures of me in pain,
filling empty rooms, leaving a black stain.
Then one sunrise light came back to her home
Her smile lit my fire I was not alone
The light brought colour and her warm embrace
I realized it was never a race
This sunrise brought the hope that she will stay,
bringing sunshine, for more than just one day
