KISS AWAY THE DAY - by Philip Stephen Spillman






 KISS  AWAY  THE  DAY



by Philip Stephen Spillman




 When the day is longer than you,
wearing you thin, making you crave sweet, 
placid dreams
 Let me kiss your worry filled face 
and embrace your shuffled thoughts


 When doubts steal your dreams,
tearing down your ladder to the stars
 Let me cover your insecurity
and lend you my shoulder to rest your weary head


 I wish to hold you, console you,
let you lay in my arms, 
 Safe from deadlines and passing cars,
safe from a world gone mad


 I will unravel you, 
weeding out the trifles of life with a tender hand
attached to two open arms,
wanting to be your haven, your homeland,
waiting to be your escape


 Let me unwind the clocks that are ticking,
pushing you more and more
let me make it alright,
let me love you completely,
let me kiss away the day
