Surprise Me!

YURI DURAAN - The Day Has Come

2014-06-14 1 Dailymotion

The Day has come.

Even though I have been waiting
for a long time,
it was unexpected…

I woke up and it was here…
a visitor at the door
the taxi still waiting in the
street
door open…
motor running…
It said: “Are you coming? ”

I had been waiting a long time
but it was unexpected…

no time to think
to hang back
the day was leaving without me…
running away from me

So, I followed
in my haste discarding all my
baggage, leaving behind the
ribbons that tied me to the door
which was closing behind me…

I followed the Day…
the Day that has come for me.
