Don't Leave Me for an Instant

Don't leave me for an instant
my heart can't stand the emptiness of your absence.

You are my breath,
my beating heart.

Don't you know?
You saved me from myself
that fateful October night.

I was dying inside
with no hope or purpose.

Your love blossomed in my soul
and gave me renewed inspiration to live.

Don't leave me for an instant
my heart can't stand the emptiness.
