In the pre-dawn hours
The stillness of the night
I try to determine the reasons
My heart has taken flight.
I can hear the seagulls overhead
Sun on the rise again,
People on their way to work
A new day to begin.
But still I cannot relax
My mind is a-twirl
The conversations that we had
Inside my head, they swirl.
You are so captivating
So blissfully unaware
Of the power that you wield
Without a solitary care...
Why must I be lonely?
Why could it not ever be?
Why didn't God place you here,
In this same place with me?
As I sit and ponder
I'll just have to conclude
That this time with you
Is just a blissful interlude...
Reality will come creeping back
As much as I push it away
But Love will tuck me safe in it's arms
Perhaps another day.
