Gone

by Bridgette *Cancer* - Not entered

You were my life,
but now you're gone,
the pain is cutting like a knife,
making life for me seem so wrong.

You should be here,
not where you are,
holding me so near,
not watching from afar.

I remember the night,
spent so close to you,
all night long you held me so tight,
making my hope and strength renew.

But now you're far away,
someone else wipes away my tears,
but I want you here to stay,
I don't want them to calm my fears.

You'll never be replaced,
I couldn't even begin to try,
finding someone to match your place,
in my heart is where your life now lies.

The pain of losing you,
it's too much to bear,
always try to remember me, too,
always remember how much I cared.

Without you I want to die,
life has no more meaning,
except countless times I cry,
and of you I'm always dreaming.

I want to hold you again,
I want to feel your touch,
I'll always remember how long its been,
because I miss you so much.

I wish you were here,
with all my heart,
You would stop my tears,
I would never let you part.

I'm dead on the inside,
I can no longer feel.
Though my body refuses to die,
my soul I have already killed.

I shouldn't even be here,
I'm just taking up space,
I'll soon no longer fear,
for I will soon see your face.

Reason for writing:

    Please tell me what you think.
