Life without you

Life Without You Life without you in cold desert sand, I walk without shadow, the sun too tired to care. Alone in the place I used to know, walls whisper your name in cracks and corners, but you never answer. Silence moved in where your voice used to be. The rooms are getting smaller, the windows won’t open, time has folded in on itself only the ache expands. I no longer feel the seasons. Spring forgot me. Summer lost its colour. And autumn, autumn just watches me unravel. Winter stays forever. It crept into my chest and made a home, built a bed beside my ribs, and now it breathes with me slow, cold, constant. Even dreams have turned grey. Even my tears freeze midfall. I speak to the air as if you might reply. You don’t. Because only on my mind you exist
