Only With You
Your absence is my heartbreak
Without you, my life seems to
spiral out of control.
I seek a path that can free me
to no avail
How can I let go if you continue
to live inside of me.
How am I to erase the memory of
your embrace. The delicate way
your hands caressed
my skin, your breath upon my breath
the passionate kiss.
Dark hair wild flowing as if
thousands of dancing butterflies
had landed on my chest.
I was yours, you to be mine
All those moments of longing and
quiet desperation lingering still.
I can not have you
yet all my being is at stake;
and all I can
do is continue to love you
while my heart Silently breaks
