Morning Has Broken?

When I awoke.

Morning had just broke.

I didn’t know.

How could I have known?

Today, was the day that we lost hope.

Eternal warmth.

We are solemn as we toast.

You were reality, in a world of dreams.

You were rocksteady, in a world of need.

You were a head full of dreams.

I cannot match what you’ve achieved.

You cared a lot even with the weight of the world on your shoulders. You kept us aloft, so that we could reach the top.

Morning has broken? So why am I still asleep?

I wake up in a sweat, the morning hadn’t broken.

Instead I was thrown from a hellish dream.

Powerless to soothe your perishing screams.
