I lay Awake
(Verse 1)
In the silence of the night, echoes fill my mind,
Searching for a love that's been so hard to find,
I wander through the shadows, restless and alone,
Longing for a heart that could truly be my own.
(Pre-Chorus)
But I won't lose hope, I'll keep on dreaming,
The stars above are brightly beaming,
With each passing night, I'll pray for a break,
For the moment when true love awakes.
(Chorus)
I lay awake, under the starry sky,
Hoping for a love that will never say goodbye,
Every beat of my heart, whispers your name,
In the stillness of the night, I'll find my flame.
(Verse 2)
Through the darkest storms, I'll search for the light,
Guided by a feeling that burns so bright,
I'll break down the walls, that keep my heart confined,
Embracing every moment, leaving the past behind.
(Pre-Chorus)
And I won't lose hope, I'll keep on believing,
In a love that will be forever endearing,
With each passing night, I'll pray for a sign,
That our paths will cross, in perfect time.
(Chorus)
I lay awake, under the starry sky,
Hoping for a love that will never say goodbye,
Every beat of my heart, whispers your name,
In the stillness of the night, I'll find my flame.
(Bridge)
So let the moon's gentle glow light the way,
As destiny guides our hearts, come what may,
I'll surrender to love and let it lead the way,
Together we'll find solace, night and day.
(Chorus)
I lay awake, under the starry sky,
Hoping for a love that will never say goodbye,
Every beat of my heart, whispers your name,
In the stillness of the night, I'll find my flame.
(Outro)
And as the morning sun begins to rise,
I'll see the love reflected in your eyes,
No longer alone, because now we're intertwined,
In this everlasting love, forever entwined.
About this poem
"I Lay Awake" is one my first poems I have ore much ever made, It symbolises Love and being with one another, and to never lose the flame. Sounds cringey and not original but it feels warm and comforting.
