you cannot stay here

the sun is waiting to rise

to gleam into your eyes

and steal you from the blue night

the burning in your heart

is yearning to be matched with the dawning of the day

wander into light

and leave me in the dark

it is okay to love

even if yesterday took so much from you already

it is my fault

I do not mean to leave

but the night had called me

and I could not say no

leave me in the night

allow yourself to shed the hardened skin

along with the tears

that will be dried by the sun in the morn'
