Each Day, Each Night

Each passing day, each grueling night

I try not to dream of you with all my might.

Hard as I try, pray even as I fight

Your addictiveness does not escape my everlasting night.

 

Each wondering day, each promising night

I don't sleep, for I fight

I hope for you to come waltzing in as you did outright

Every other day, every other night.

 

Each sad day, each peaceful night

I watch through the windows, wishing for flight.

To be where you are, sail me there swiftly

Through the air, through clouds that are bright.

 

Each rainy day, each sleepless night

I hope and pray with all my might

That memories of you will not haunt me

Through another day, or another night.
