Seconds ticking by on the clock, Circling around and around
Another day gone, another day of living.
I've survived...
Managed to live another measly 24 hours.
But, I AM NOT LIVING!

Another new year,
Another red-letter event.
One more unending day I've been stuck here alone on this planet of solitude.
I am alive...but I'm not living.

I'm not living if I don't have you to hold.
To spend every second of the clock talking to and thinking about.
To while away the time reminiscing all the happiness we shared together,
And planning every second of our future together.

You are the sunrise that breaks the ceaseless night.
You are the oxygen that fills my lungs.
The drum beat of my heart.
When I am with you I am not just alive;
I AM LIVING!
