I sit by the water
And watch the remnants of the moonlight
Sip the dark stream
Up like a straw
It is dawn
And I am still waiting
For the sun to rise
The moon has been here too long
I sit by the grass
And watch the blades grow
And dance in the wind
Like it’s a song
It is dawn
And I am still waiting
For the sun to rise
The moon is slowly falling behind the trees.
I sit on my legs
And watch
The hands move up and down my spine
Like rope being tied in knots
It is dawn
And I am still waiting
For the sun to rise
For the moon is gone into the darkness
And the sun has yet to rise.
So I sit
And I wait
Under these stars
Not knowing the difference
Between the ones in the sky
And the ones covering
My blurred, closing eyes.
Where are you?
It is still too dark...
Now all I can do,
is wait.
