Without You - There Is No Me

I looked into your eyes and saw the window to my soul And knew right then for me there’s only you I knew this was forever, I surrendered to this love I was lost every time I looked at you I felt I had I been searching - trying every door But every flame I lit too quickly died Until the day I found you - just waiting there for me I knew I’d always want you by my side My love for you was easy, innocent and blind There were no chains or walls around my heart With you there was beginning, there’d never be an end I never dreamed we’d ever be apart Sometimes we did lose touch with our feelings inside We had our share ups and downs and fears But mostly we were happy, so I guess I never dreamed My happiness would be replaced with tears On the day you left me, devastated, in despair And emptiness invaded all my days My fragile heart was shattered, broken beyond repair With too much pain that time cannot erase In love you’re always standing, you never to learn to fall, Or stop to think what life is all about You never dream that one day there’s a chance you’ll be alone You never dream this love you’ll be without Your presence here still lingers...it won’t leave me alone It haunts my days, my nights, my thoughts, my dreams I don’t know how do this and be here on my own This loss is so much harder than it seems I know I mustn’t let the past destroy what comes tomorrow But without you I don’t know how to feel Without you I’m broken, I’m lost and so alone Without you I don’t know how to heal But even in my shattered world so shaken to its core A second chance for you and I to be I know I wouldn't hesitate, I know I’d take you back For without you in life, there is no me...

What an incredibly painful poem Raina. Very nicely written. If it is a true poem, then I hope you get him back!
