Since You Left Me

I don’t wanna see the light I just wanna walk through the night Through the shadows Feeling no fright That’s how I feel Since you left me That’s how I deal Since you left me I close my eyes, not to sleep Just to contain the tears I weep In between time The live and die time It’s how I survive Since you left me It’s stayin’ alive Since you left me And I hold no hope for our tomorrow You made your choice If I reach out, it’ll just bring sorrow Yeah, I heard all that in your voice Wayward souls, passing by That’s all we were, hello/goodbye And we can’t build a future on illusion This nightmare love, has Already caused too much confusion So, I don’t wanna see the light I just wanna walk through the night Through the shadows Feeling no fright That’s how I feel Since you left me That’s how I deal Since you left me

'The live and die time' - nice way to phrase it. It's somehow sad that what happens between is that which decides how we live or die. Nice Lyric Judith!

I felt the pain and sorrow in this poem....I love the verse "In between time The live and die time" it very true to everyone who has been hurt by love. ~Tammy~
