COLD MORNING


i pull the covers high, press snooze and think of u,

with my eyes closed

i can be in any time

i can be anywhere

i can be my true self

i can be by you

cold morning but the sun shines thru.


i pretend that nothing changed

i make believe you answer when i call ur name

with my eyes closed

i can be anywhere

i can be back there

i can be by you

cold morning but the sun shines thru.


i imagine nothing’s new

not there to hear the fall

and so the tree stands true

with my eyes closed, with my eyes closed

i can be back there

i can be by you

cold morning but the sun shines thru.


momentary panic

the day says don’t be sedentary

fill time with all thing unnessecary

with eyes wide open, life gets done

i’m not there

i’m not by you

cold morning but the sun shines thru.


a darkness creeps

a hollow empty form

a shadow at my heels, entirely lost and forlorn

so i peel my eyes open, and see i stand alone

i am here not there

I’m not by you

on a cold cold morning when the sun shines thru.


i have some good days when i forget to remember

but the kindling is low, 

and the fire is just embers

i stared with eyes wide open

in the pitch of the night

neither here nor there, and long to be by you

in the chill of morning, when the sun shines thru.


like the water for the soil, ur absence is my drought

no germinating seeds, 

no life is born from doubt

i view with eyes wide open the desert of my life

i have no here or there

where once was me and you

cold and frosty morning, but the sun shines thru.


i know that others wish for my heart to mend

the truth is in my eyes

my sorrow knows no end

for though my eyes are open, i’m blind without your touch

i see no here or there

for that i needed you

so cold i am this morning, but the sun shines thru.


it’s not about addiction to my pain of grief and loss

this planet is a prison

that you are now free from

i saw with eyes wide open, the bliss filled place u went

but u’r not here and i’m not there

and so i ache to join you

this cold cold cold cold morning, but the sun shines thru.


but the sun, the sun shines thru to ease the dawnings chill

sleep became my bed mate

and remains so still

i force my eyes to open, and dress in emperors clothes

a naked coat I wear, stitched with threads of you

to feel no cold this morning

you make the sun shine thru
