I awoke in your arms in the beaming sun

A part of me couldn’t gather reality

It was all so out of touch.

I thought if I take this step by step we would grow,

Your touch meant so much even when you gave so little.

As your eyes flutter open the smile lines spread on your face

There was so much courage in me

But I had so little to say.

I watch you close your eyes and bring your hand back into mine.

Humming back to sleep you peacefully drift off as I lie wide awake.

I look around to the sky watching the sun rise as I slowly close my eyes.

Minutes start to feel like hours, hours start to feel like days, days start to turn into weeks when I realize,

I was trapped in my own daze.

I snap awake looking around for your touch

Noticing you actually do give so much.

A sigh leaves my lips as I remember,

You never were here and long went my wasted awakening day trapped in my daze.
