I'm not living;
Life without you
Time is indefinite,
I want to wait for you
Will you return?
I do not know
But I hope
In dreams
Reality will hit me,
I miss you; love,
Sometimes my thoughts
Are my only savior,
But I'm also going crazy
Thinking and praying
For the day you'll return,
It's the only purpose I have,
Drinking beer by the keg
Tasting wine by the barrel,
Days used to go by like nights,
But now; no longer can I ignore
Every single tick magnified
As I try uselessly to talk
Myself out of time's grip,
Watch I no longer wear
To know the time
But to be aware
Of it's heaviness
On my wrist;
Hanging limply
By my side,
Unable to rise
And wave hello
At another day...
