You Cannot Leave Me Too

Awake or asleep 
You still play through my mind. 
You empty every tear duct and lift both corners of my mouth. 
Whether I’m happy or sad 
You fulfill and reach every inch
Circulating, dispersing, filling until I’m full. 

When words fail me, misbehave and sentences cannot stand in line
I look to you to say what I cannot
To put together my thoughts. 
To relay what I am failing to convey
Why can’t I connect the dots?

Your existence is bigger than I will ever be
Without intention you capture my heart. 
I use you when all else fails
Everything always fails. 
Hear me when I say 
You are one I cannot live without
I cannot live without you,
Music.
