You Are Worthy Of Being Loved as The Day Breaks
By Janne Robinson
I hope he holds your hand in the daylight
walking down small town streets
where everyone knows his name
I hope he introduces you
grinning
you’re worthy of staying up late
till three am
talking
sitting on hardwood floors
I hope he joins you
to drink a bottle of opened red wine
with a cork that reads some old fashioned name
sitting on cement blocks outside the only bar in this town
undressing your soul
slowly
first
I hope when you leave
there is no fear in your heart
that he will call
that he will think of you
that you know it was special and sweet
and you don’t doubt for a moment
your name is still on his lips
his brain
his red beating heart
you’re so worthy darling
of being loved as the day breaks
and life churns on
