The Heart Chronicles

➳ When I Wake Up

There are days when I wake up

With a smile etched on my face

It's when I dream of you

And our warm embrace

There are days when I wake up

With streams of tears on my cheeks 

It's when I dream of losing you 

And when I fear losing what your heart seeks

There are days when I wake up 

With a feeling of emptiness in my chest

It's when I dream of my reality

And how I lost what was best

There are days when I wake up

With regret filling my stomach

It's when I realize I don't want to live

A life in which you don't have a part to take

There are days when I wake up

With a yearning to see your lovely face

To forget about all my mistakes 

And to finally have something worth the chase-

You.
