Love Poem: Without

Without

WITHOUT

WITHOUT YOUR LOVE MY LIFE WOULD FALL APART
AND DEPRESSION WOULD TAKE MY HEART

SMILING WOULD BE A DISTANT MEMORY ALONG WITH THOUGHTS OF YOU AND ME

MY EARS WOULD GO DEAF WITHOUT THE SWEET SOUND OF YOUR VOICE

MY LIFE WOULD BE EMPTY ONLY BY LOVE’S CHOICE

WITHOUT YOU BY MY SIDE 
I WOULD HAVE NO HOPE AND HAVE NO PRIDE

BUT, WITH YOUR LOVE MY HEART IS WHOLE AND I CAN FEEL THE HAPPINESS WITHIN MY SOUL

MEMORIES WOULD BE EVERLASTING  MOMENTS 
AND PRECIOUS THOUGHTS

MY EARS WOULD RING WHILE THE SWEET WORDS YOU SPEAK
WOULD BE CAUGHT

WITH YOU BY MY SIDE I HAVE SOMEONE TO CONFIDE
AND I”LL HAVE HOPE AND STAND TALL WITH PRIDE

TO BE WITHOUT YOU WOULD BE LIKE ENDURING DEATH
AND TO BE WITH YOU IS LIKE TAKING LIFE’S FIRST BREATH
