And still, tears stream down my face,
Until my eyes exhaust every trace.
Odd, perhaps, for a man to cry,
Yet, an empty sky can't deny.

How I wish to hold your waist,
On the dance floor, with elegance and grace.
Swaying steps, lost in your eyes,
The pain of goodbye, a hurtful surprise.

You vanish from my sight but not my mind,
Missing you is a challenge, a love that's hard to find.
My heart goes into a state of disarray,
Creating pain, love's strange display.

Nothing is the same when you're not near,
Happiness eludes, replaced by fear.
Attempts to find joy seem in vain,
Chained by a love, an unbreakable strain.

Even after vows were shared,
To witness you becoming my life, my declared.
Still, no right to keep you close,
The wait persists until our own house.

A future where leaving is no more,
Together, in love, our spirits will soar.
