Midnight Without You

What was a happy place.. It's been replaced with sadness Shadows moved in Looking out the window, the sky frowns gray Rain pouring down An ominous sound Of regret, our love has drowned What an unexpected place On its face the dark unknowns Shroud the memory Of brighter days when skies were always blue Hand in hand I was your man Only love songs played by the band We were gas and fire, burning intense desire The flame now gone, no lover's song Girl... what went wrong Tears trickle down my cheeks Once I was strong, now I'm so weak Love abandoned me On this uncharted isle of pain and loneliness Just left to die I wonder why I try to smile, even whistle.. but I just cry Because...... There's no relief Just heartbroken grief My only breath a hopeless sigh In my cold muse, I remember your breath on me Your touch alone opened my eyes so I could see Where are you sweet girl It's midnight without you, I'm so blind And still I'd search the world Just whisper in the air.. I'll be there Can we not be again, oh it never has to end Sweet girl, just whisper in the air And we can be again We can be again It's midnight without you ~Lyric Man Note: This is a break up song with a tinge of hope in the end, because that's my personality. Today is my last day on this Mountain Adventure and having to leave this sweet girl (the mountain) put me in the perfect meloncholy to pen this write. I'll be back to the mountains, and I hope all who have lost love will once again find it. May you find solice in this write, enjoy! PS.. Like all of my writes, they are penned from my phone, and I wanted to get this out before packing up so if you see a typo please let me know!

Very poetic! My Lyrics are written for a singer. I notice your writing is what I would call beautiful poetry. What is the difference between Rhyme poetry and lyrical writing? I'm very new to this.

Melancholy seeps from these lyrics, my friend. When love drowns it is not easy to bring it back to life, but nevertheless, one never gives up hope. Best regards // paul

Powerfully beautiful! Melodious flow. Midnight is but a moment in the navel of time...just whisper. I enjoyed my "visit" with you and yours. Peace and Love, Millard Lowe.

Midnight on the top of a mountain can be so spiritually uplifting and romantic! So I can identify with the wonderful sentiments expressed in symbolism and personifying the love you feel for this mountain. Another great lyric from your heart! Love and hugs. Pandita

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, this is so true. And if I close my eyes, I am there in the magic of this place, this place you paint with your words. Some sadness lingers, yet I can feel the rain upon my skin. The rain holds many emotions indeed. Yes, I know the sunshine will appear. ~ Brandy
