How Can I

How can I stop when the world won't allow me.
Each morning I arise to your name and face in my mind and on my lips.
How can I Stop when I see you everywhere little pieces of you that twist at my core
I hear your voice singing one small verse and the wind mimics your breath.
How can I stop when I hear your name and my heart skips a beat and my breath is 
stolen away.
My mind replays images of past times I can never forget and my eyes search for you 
everywhere.
How can I stop these feelings which I should have never had which now is all I 
know.
How can I stop I cannot for this is all that remains and if I should even I will vanish
