Without You
would you not turn back
for one last time
to look into my eyes, so dry
in search of a mirror in an oasis
to know the only truth I’ve ever known
the one that’s slipping away from my fingers
at this very moment, my happiness fades
with the fading scent of your body
unchained and unabated
now my demons are free to roam
and my heart is tender with distress
but more feeble is my soul
unable to look for sustenance
somewhere else
.
What will I do without you?
