PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Well, I woke up wanting to hold you,

in blue shadows of the dawn.

Yes, I woke up wanting to hold you.

I'd forgotten you were gone.

And my eyes closed ever tightly,

while the tears all flooded out.

Your warm grace here once beside me,

found my new day now in doubt.

Yeah, I woke up wanting to hold you,

like some child far from home.

Words of praise I once had told you,

they cried out now all alone.

And they drowned within the stillness,

with your heartbeat far away.

All life's hopes that once fulfilled me,

they'd now slipped inside the gray.

How my love still calls sincerely,

in true ways just like before.

But to think you're now not near me,

hints more heartache lies instore.

For so clear remains the knowing,

that your comforts touch my soul.

Love alive still meant for flowing,

where blue shadows take their toll.
