Imagine Wakening Up

Imagine wakening up and not a single sound to be heard
No chirping of birds, beautiful visions now become blurred

Imagine wakening up to find all the colours have gone
Then you start to wonder did you hear them sing their songs

Imagine wakening up not knowing who are all around 
The closing in of the abyss consuming your common ground

Imagine wakening up into a world you just don't understand
Strolling down what you think are memories, ashen grey and bland

Imagine wakening up, and having to see through my eyes
You are looking into my heart the day before you arrived

This is lovely James. You speak of how empty your world was before your loved one entered your life. Exceptional verse. God Bless, JB
