Sweet Surrender Of Morning Light - JohnTravis
8th Aug 2012 20:40 - 14 years ago
Description : Wrote this letter many years ago, just now paring it with this piece.
Staring at you while you sleep, trying to figure out how to say the right words, the words that will touch your heart as well as your soul. The chic words you've always wanted to hear. Although, it seems useless now, you will never look back my way and it seems the light will only get dimmer on the other side of the tunnel. Silly of me to think I can change your mind about us, but it never hurts to try, right? I lay awake all night thinking of the right words. As I began to think about what would bring music to your ears what would make you cry, those tears of happiness and unselfish joy. Then I suddenly realized through your beauty, the mislaid words had already been spoken countless times; however I never meant a single word until now. Of all times, I could have said those words, I think to myself, “why now”? At a time when I know you’re leaving and moving on with your life. I know now that old saying is true; you never know what you have till it’s gone. So, I want to tell you those words, and this time I mean it with every ounce of might within me, from the bottom of my heart, now and forevermore… I love you! As the tears began to seep from my eyes onto the pillow underneath my head, I never knew what those words meant until now. Yes, those words I have spoken to you before, but with it, the feelings that erupt within my heart, it hurts and feels good at the same time. Knowing you will be gone soon hurts me even more. All the why’s in the world could never explain the passion and adoration I feel for you at this moment. As my arms move toward your tranquil body to hold you, I stop myself, knowing you will be happier without me. As my eyes began to tire, and my heavy heart began to weaken, I realized the dream was over, as the day kissed me goodbye, and the sweet surrender of morning light gives way.
