Sunrise
Walking through our secret garden
I feel a million spirits soaring
Daring to fly
With the courage of butterflies
Knowing they were untouchable
In every way
I can see two souls
Touching for the first time
Two drops meeting
In the middle of an ocean
Never failing to appreciate
The privilege of
And impossible odds against
Having this moment
I know I have spent my entire life
Looking for you
And now that I have found you
I know that I would give up Heaven
To spend a lifetime in Hell
As long as I could share it with you
I know now
That a good man can end up in Hell
Because he fails to forgive himself
Can you imagine the magnitude
Of a life wasted?
Since I have known you
You have given me
The gift of seeing beauty
In the ordinariness of everyday life
You have shown me
The kindness of children
And given me the strength
To face the raging storm of my own doubt
Without surrendering to my fears
You have taught me
To hear music in the sunrise
And feel its nourishing light
To know the healing power of tears
And find redemption in a kiss
The ability to find
Peace at the Center
And now that I’ve been told
We can never be
I know not how to go on
No point in waking up in the morning
Purpose for each day
Gone by the wayside
Being friends betters not knowing you
But yet it is still so hard
To look in the eyes of an angel
To stare such radiant beauty in the face
And know that fate has not chose the destiny one had hoped for
Fate has made you a part of my life
And though maybe not in the role I may have chosen
A significant role it is nonetheless
And so life must still go on
Long after another day’s sunrise
