Without My Say

no matter   the hour
no matter   the day
my breath   continues
   without my say

As so
   without my say
you departed
   on that bitter
   dark
of just one day.

Now on   these days 
   of today 
   of yesterdays
   of would-be tomorrows

Quite without my say
my cracked   be-crinkled heart
   she beats   
   rhythms   on 
for the   all   of my todays 
   for you   only you         
without my say
without   my you.
