A Place Without You

I walk past you everyday
and everyday I walk past you,
I slip just a little further.
Into a darker place.
Into a place dark with hurt.

In a place without you.

Every night I dream of your sapphire eyes,
and every night when I peer into them,
I fall deeper and deeper.
Deeper and deeper I fall,

In love with you.

Every time I read your notes,
faint traces of you dancing around the page,
your notes I read.
I read more and more,

More of your beautiful soul.

At times I think,
and when I think at times,
I think you're gone. Erased
from me like time from space,

But you've made your mark, right here.

So I'm ready to let you go,
but let you go I won't.
Only you I want,
I want only you,

For I'm deeply in love with you.

A place without you,
is a sky without a sun.
A night without a moon,
a sweet morning without the dew.

It's a flower without petals,
a dragon without teeth.
It's a body without a heart,
a tear without grief.

A place without you,
is a place without me. 
For without you,
why would there be a me?

Author's Note

A place without him would be a pointless place. Yet day after day I continue to slip into a place without him. So I'm pointless. Everything's pointless. He walked away, so now I have nothing to live for. My life is pointless. And don't even give me some stupid crap about I have every reason to live if you don't even know me.

Wow.. this is full of emotions! You won't get any grief from me here.. I can see full well you have lots of reason in this life.. this was magnificent! Love can hurt.. we really don't have to let go of someone.. we can keep them deep in our hearts as long as we want cause there's lots of room there! So many people hold a place in my heart..love is free and sweet with the right way of thinking. I can certainly relate with what you have here.. been there more than once.. but love is so worth it.. I THINK SO!!! Lovely showing of emotions.. you have a beautiful heart!
