Without you...

A Breakdown/Knockout Ode

When you smiled, I felt happy.

When you cried, I cried with you.

I shared your pain, your anger, your sorrow.

I shared your happiness, your fun, your joy of life.

Without you my world is hollow and dark like a moonless night.

You were my spark, my soul, my sanity.

You held me when I felt lost.

You took away all my pain, all my tears, and made me see life in a brighter light.

Without you I can't see the light anymore.

It's like a eternal dusk had fallen, never to leave, never to be brightened again.

Even the stars in the sky had left, their light nothing but a cold, distant memory.

A memory of you.

You were my anchor, my wall on which I could always lean when I needed it.

You were what grounded me, what made me whole.

Without you, my mind feels hollow, my sanity is dwindling.

I am slowly dying.

I slip away, falling, falling forever through darkness.

I wish I could join you in death.

Death seems so warm, so inviting.

Her arms opened, her smile beckoning.

I can't resist anymore.

There is no point.

My life ended when you died.

I am but a walking dead waiting for Lady Death to finally claim me.

I join you, my beloved, my Everything.

In the embrace of Death.

My Immortal...
