I Love You
how do i breathe
when you are my air
i am lost & incomplete
without your calm voice..
inside, i shake uncontrollably
as tears stain my face,
no longer an us now only me
is more than i can bear..
loving thoughts of you
are a deep & painful memory
of the sacred bond we shared
consumed with grief i rock and rock..
curled tightly in a ball
on a cold unforgiving floor
arms cocoon my quivering body
emptiness overwhelms me..
i love you
the loss consumes me
i am scared i feel nothing
where love lived joyfully
is now a black & desolate void..
you blessed me with your love
i was the luckiest girl on the planet
without you there is no me
when do i begin to feel simply feel..
there is no poetry nor musical note
the only audible sound
is my heart breaking
piece by piece..
i gave myself to you
with honour & respect
you were the first man
who truly saw me for me..
your beautiful mind
& beguiling charm
guided me tenderly with care,
i felt safe i felt
with all that i am
to the core of my being
my hand is yours eternally
it is you i cherish and adore.
i love you
