In the face of Death

by GraCiE   Jun 24, 2013


I can't imagine my future without you,
I think of all our times together,
I can't understand how it went wrong,
We both decided this was forever.

My heart is dying and my whole body too,
I ache from head to toe,
Not falling asleep in your arms and waking to your face,
Makes this painful death so slow.

I didn't realise how much I needed you,
Until I realise you didn't need me.
It feels like I've been crucified,
and left to die for all to see.

I feel like I have an illness which is consuming every part of me,
An illness that has no cure,
I see no light at the end of the tunnel,
Just more heartbreak I am sure.

The invisible pain is so sharp it suddenly takes my breath,
How can something once so beautiful bring me so close to death.
I don't know where the pain is stemming from, but it leaves me lifeless and fighting to survive,
When you and me ceased to be,
I realise it was you that kept me alive.

So now i struggle to live and take life breath by breath,
I never knew that when you lose someone you love they carry on fine,
But it brings me so close to death.

I love you, come back to me and save me.
