A Little Less Alive

Without you by my side I’d be a little less alive A little less I’d know the world And so much more, I’d cry A little less my heart would beat Without your love, my heart, my sweet

Mike, Your poem is very succinct but also very powerful and inspiring. It makes me think about my own relationship with my wife, which I am happy to report, the nature of which meets the criteria you describe. I also see you have been very prolific, so I hope to read more of what you have posted.
