Without You
I heard the squelch of death again
Snatching away my gentlest serenity
Honing knives to slash chunks of pain
Shooting spasms of sorrow felt so especially
When the darkness reminds me just why
I’ve taken up residence amid the tears
Failing to confide in another, I continue to cry
Learning once more that today is more than fears
I must let go of the very one whom I so adored
Fill up my heart with comforting thoughts
Despite the fact that my love won’t be restored
It feels as if my stomach is tied up in knots.
Yes, things will go on as they must do
But I know that life will never be the same
Without you
