FACING THE DAWN (Free Verse)

The night never stay forever...

There's a promise
A fulfillment of my once biggest dream
To find you
To be with you
Among the many faces I've seen
You stood right there
Wearing the smile
That only I could see

You held my hand
And guided me
Into the dark alley
And I never felt any fear
Because you're there

I slept
While you were watching me
Like an angel by my side
Protecting me from harm
Assuring nothing
Would steal my comfort

And when I woke up
It's no longer dark in my room
The night has ended
And I have to face the new day
It's the first light I saw
When I glanced at my window

I'm facing the dawn
With you here by my side

I'm not afraid anymore...

[Eddie Davis]

A very touching poem, that reminded me, for some reason of the 23rd Psalm. Perhaps there is a good reason for that. I hope that the hope and peace in this poem is a reality in your life on this Valentine's Day, Dhaye. A close friend is something very marvelous and I hope you always face your dawns, and midnights, together.

[Dhaye]

Thanks so much, Eddie. Yes, my bestfriend is very marvelous and I'll always thank God for having this person in my life.
