As the new morning broke
And the light found my eyes,
I held aside my desires, and let go.
And in a sad state of grace,
With a heart numbed to calm,
I watched my hopes break like glass on a stone.
You could touch me no more;
I had left you behind,
Forlorn in a distant dark room in my mind.
And my beautiful friend,
You would haunt me no more
When I summoned the strength to force home the door.
Had you suffered for me?
Pale and sleepless and drawn,
Awaiting the sound of my foot in the hall?
When the new morning broke
And the light touched your eyes
Did you wake to the sound of the crash in surprise?
For these beautiful dreams
That had weighed our hearts down
Laid scattered and shattered in shards on the ground.
Now once more on our knees,
Hands bleeding and torn,
We piece love together again in the dawn.
