No Future

Ecstasy for me now something from history
loneliness is my rendezvous with my future 
normal life becomes abnormal a mystery 
a broken heart can't be fixed by any suture,

her charm was so unique, now lost in times vortex
she showed tenderness, kindness, possessed such finesse 
without her I am lost, life has become complex
living here all alone causes to much distress,

my minds got unnaturally precarious 
gallivanting from one thought then to another
together we were happy quite gregarious 
now I feel nonchalant couldn't care for no other,

Can I cope living my life that is such a mess
life without her I'm not sure I can acquiesce.
