It's The Morning Of Another Dawn Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

It's the morning of another dawn.
And I awaken to wonder what's going on...
With us.
With you.
With me.

What is it I am left to wonder,
Has happened in the past few days...
That keeps you away and us so distant.
Never before like this have I been left clueless.
And you, mysteriously silent.

It's the morning of yet another Sunrise.
And without rest I did not get,
I sat long beyond yesterday's Sunset...
Questioning myself in a lonely bed,
If you are wishing me to feel remorse or regret.
And with it done I should suspect you are upset.

Have you wilfully disappeared,
With my heart kidnapped?
Have you done this to me and I should know that?
And I wonder if it was something I did do,
Shouldn't I be the one upset...
You had not expressed respect enough to tell me?

And...
You are proving with a doing,
My mind is yours to keep hostage.
With my feelings you can just take to kidnap.
Until I satisfy your investment with a paying of my pain.

It's the morning of another dawn.
And I awaken to wonder what's going on...
With us.
With you.
With me.
And...
Without sleep I desperately need,
I'm determined not to give you that kind of power.
Although I know...
Your absence has kidnapped my thoughts.
