Sitting alone simply staring
Into the nothingness before me;
Voiceless I'd scream loudly
For it was all too much;

The abyss weighed me down,
And it's blackness took my vision;
It dried my eyes so no tears
Would fall onto the ground beneath me;

But it all changed rapidly,
When I first met her gaze;
The weight was lifted,
My voice had found its way back;

Just being near her brought
Back a genuine smile;
And the way she smiled and laughed
Filled my emptiness with joy;

I feared nothing anymore,
But a world without her;
Though she feels not the same,
It is more than enough
To make me laugh, smile, dance and sing.
