Dawn

lizaaitken

At break of dawn you leave me, I’m alone again so soon

Once more the vacant feeling, spills into the room.

As the night turns into morning, you bid me farewell 

That you ever were truly here, is impossible to tell

That’s how my life is working now, I have you while asleep 

As daytime comes you go again, into my memories deep

I won’t complain out loud my love, I want you to return

I need you close at night with me, while grief I try to learn.

One day I understand dear, I’ll have to sleep alone

When I get a little stronger, understand the empty home

I’m not asking for eternity, but please stay a little while

It’s only in my sleeping time, that you bring me back my smile

      1. I would love to say it gets easier, but I don’t think it does. It is a part of life we all have to go through. It is the fact that we have strong faith that helps, I have NO doubt that our loved ones are around us, that they want us to be happy, and we will meet up with them again.

        Always here for you 🙂
