All Alone But Alive

You are gone;
Not coming back;

When you were here...


You made me feel dead inside;
There would be happiness;
There would be fun times;
I could smile and laugh;
I could be yours;
I would enjoy life fully again;
I would bear to love;

Alas, your not here so...
Now I feel more alive inside;
There is nothing I can’t do;
There is no one to talk to;
I still smile and laugh but inwardly rather then skin deep;
I belong to no man for I am not property anymore;
No one to help;
NO one good enough to hold;

You are not here;
I will never allow you here again;
Now without you I’m all alone but I am all alive inside.
