Lost Without You

Without You
  the words won’t come
  no matter how I try
  the thoughts are empty, dry,
withered in the myriad of breathing
  taking in the scent of mint
  freshly cut between the grass
  and I sit here thinking of the past.
Nothing changes now you're gone
  the days are shorter but seem long
  my heart still mourns
  for all that was once born
  between us.
What happens next
  will be a surprise
  as I remain dully pained foolishly unwise.
I’ve no plans nor foresight
 to see what I should do
 while I linger here 
lost without you.
