Without You

I thought we had a bond that was unbreakable two hearts that beat as one shared desires, hopes and dreams our future together planned out lives forever entwinned when you left there was so much empty space my head full of words unspoken a heart weakened and broken by sorrow nights became dark and lonely days-an existence that held no joy No longer was I blinded by beauty- there was none the world was a strange place full of people I did not know And then I saw an escape from the pain, the lonliness But, as I looked into the abyss a bright sun shone and sparkled on a blue clear sea golden sand shimmered children laughed and played- flying kites in the wind And, I saw hope you were gone-the other half of me but I knew I could go on without you.
