With You Or Without

To my grasp, these emotions are lost I cannot explain why it is I feel this way All thoughts and words you exhaust Conscience and logic are absent today Troublesome questions in my mind criss-cross Events long past over and over replay 'Why are there no answers?' I ask But again I meet with deafening silence So I sought resolution from fire in a glass Its answers brought no peace in all its violence As I recall someone said, "This too shall pass." There is negative comfort in such guidance Yet peace in my soul I do find, through you! Joy beyond compare at mere sight A smile from ear to ear from the thought of you Laughter to tears of joy I cannot fight When I imagine you laughing too How can I not think of you day and night? "Take your own advice," they suggested, "Too soon you've become to this girl devout." How true! My patience you have tested Time after time I'm left in doubt Oh how, in you my heart is vested Soon I feel I will die with you or without AURIBUS TENEO LUPUM
