Without You

With you,

Every day seemed to end too soon,

With you,

Everything seemed easier to say or do.

With you,

I feel bright,

like a firework in the mid July night.

With you,

I’m able to stay strong,

And be myself.

Throughout the whole day,

And throughout the whole night.

But without you,

I never seemed to have a place,

And when you called,

I’d hate hearing your voice,

Because it reminds me of how I couldn’t stay

Without you,

I felt the need to drink my life away,

So maybe then,

I wouldn’t have to live with all this pain.

Without you,

My views of the world changed.

No more hope,

Just the knowing of what it’s capable of.

Without you,

I lost my home,

The embrace of your arms,

I’m no longer warm

Without you,

I’m a ghost of a whole.

Just a shadow,

Left wandering the world.

Like Peter Pan when he found Wendy,

Except there’s no one here to find me.

But even when it all comes crashing down,

Like lightning in the sky I’ll hold my ground,

I believe that I’ll make it through night,

I’m here to stay, and I’ll  win this fight.

another sweet piece with inspiring words at the end... love the concept and innocent nature of the poem... as you have shown the two parts of your life, the first one being with the person you love and how that person made you feel and what he means to you and the second one shows how you feel being without that person.... the ending was quite uplifting.... clappings!!! and 100 ratings.....

This is great. It really evokes all the feelings of happiness to sadness to despair and then strength. I love it. Great job.
