WITHOUT YOU
Colors of dark grey and black fill
the world in which I live
No other feeling could possibly be worse than this
Where once was a room filled with laughter and cheer
Now stands loneliness, emptiness, and despair.
Memories of you seem to creep around the corners of my mind-
Endless haunting images of your face that won't decline,
An overwhelming of emotion that my body can't contain
Inundates my soul with unbearable grief, sorrow, and pain.
Oh, how I long to be engulfed in your sweet embrace
And listen to your heart beat in synchrony with mine
But, as reality sinks in, I know that will never be
For fate has denied us a chance to see each other once more
No one could ever fathom how wretchedly my heart aches,
And how I greatly regret that you departed before I could say goodbye!
If I could go back in time, and change only one wrong that I've done,
I'd go back to the hour, to the second, on the day I lost you.
My GRANDMOTHER.
