*Together we stand,
Making up the snow-white abyss.
Our souls, alike, become one.
Then I realize how only a memory is this.
And how the love I once felt is gone.
Alone now, only I stand,
The painful nothingness that surrounds.
My soul and body seem forever apart...
Consciousness returns-and so I remember...
What has brought me here from the start.
If only I could see you one las time...
In presence, apart fom only in mind.
With helpless hope I search again.
Though I know nothing is all I will find;
No life is left; my existance seems dead.
Maybe the memories of you that are in my heart
Are enough to keep me strong...
But when I realize, in the world around me, you're gone,
I break down...I just can't go along...
I suffer when I let myself know we're really apart.
Day apon night I continue to endure this...
Sometimes I wonder if you too can't bare,
Or if the white-abyss finds you as well.
Would you too have been there?
Is this pain something we share?
I force myself back to happiness;
Into the wonderful, safe abyss.
Yet this time when I begin to dream...
I see the truth I needn't to miss;
And I just can't make true this wish.*

I wrote this years ago when I had no idea what love even was.
