Terence Shannon

I go to bed with troubled sighs,
And hopes of a new tomorrow
That brings your lips, your smile your eyes
And a day with no more sorrow.

The soul rests easy with you in mind
And when night time dreams have ended
I wake with dawn,
Euphoric inside, with a heart that’s newly mended.

And I forever in your debt
For you have shown that love can be
When all that’s left is zealous regret,
It’s you who made the blind eyes see.
