Without You

This morning when I woke up in an unfamiliar place, dark and empty. There were no doors, no windows I was trapped. No light, I could not see. No air, I could not breathe. I cried out for help, no one could hear me. Alone and smothering as the rhythm of my heartbeat grew weak until there was no beat. The glimpse of my soul once filled with vibrant life now fades away as dark as the place I find myself. Wait this in not a room, Wait this is not a place. But, this is my world without you. Dark, empty, alone and hurting. I am alone in the dark A shadow covers the beam that once lite up my life, My heart is empty, My dreams shattered, This is my world without YOU!

WoW! To say the least. You gave the reader (me) a lot of deal with in the first part of your poem. Terror induced near madness was the order of the day. Even so, after finding out it was a metaphor for your longing for him didn't calm the nerves of the reader (me) all that much. I have come to believe that love causes more hurt than it does good.
