You'Re Still Here

Here without you,

Yet I can still feel you.

Your aroma fills the air,

Your absence I can no longer bear.

Your laughter echos in my mind,

My eyes without your sight are blind.

My life passes day by day,

I sit here and for your return I pray.

There's no life without you,

How to live now I have no clue.

I am only a shell of the person I was,

Without you I have no purpose, no cause.

Your memories invade my dreams,

I wake up at night with sweat and screams.

Screams of anger for your departure,

WIthout you my world has become darker.
