To Die Without You

The unbearable parting of ones other half,
not exactly the direct soul.
The elements that created your current joy,
the things that made you whole.
To look without seeing,
no longer capturing imagery.
Passion's abandoned,
even your heart beats differently.
To walk with no direction,
paths leading in circles.
You rewind the words inside your mind..."i never meant to hurt you."
your lying to your heart,
saying dont worry,
one day she'll be back.
Inside your fighting,
but cant help but to start crying.
She's gone without ever knowing that.
To sleep without purpose,
wake without meaning,
dreams no longer move.
So i'll close my eyes,
and cross my hands,
this is what it feels like to die without you.
