without you

 

I sit here looking into empty space,

And I keep thinking of where you are.

I think of you more each day,

Just how close you really are.

 

Days turn into weeks,

Weeks turn into months.

You keep moving out of reach,

And these months drag forever on.

 

So as you go on about your way,

I hope you stop and think.

You left me alone, turned away,

Look what you did to me…

 

But nights pass on by,

And I just gaze at the stars.

I wait and wait for the light,

Until I can go away so far.

 

Years fly away and I still think of you,

And I’m stuck to wonder why.

How can try to start a new,

With your memory trapped inside.

 

Unhappy days and sleepless nights,

Keep me wide awake.

All of this isn’t right,

With you so blind to me.

 

The years continue to add on up,

And I grow so very bold

Wide open doors start to shut,

My heart remains so cold.

 

I start to breathe my final breaths

Death appears across from me.

As he stops the beating of my chest

You’re still not next to me……
