Now

Now that she's gone,
let me really live, 
feel the joy in your eyes, 
the desire in your center.

Now that she's gone,
I need to see the outside,
no more mere survival,
I will drink it all in.

Now that she's gone,
I sense you so strongly,
your power, your beauty,
the wonder of your being.

Now that she's gone,
I will not waste my life,
ever exploring, experiencing,
dancing till the music stops.
