written from the soul

A life without you

As I sit alone
In this loud but now quiet home
I think of you
And the things we used to do
How can a world full of color turn so blue
With the loss of you
If only you knew
The things I've been going through

As my flashlight turned off
My life was put on pause
As I find myself in the dark
Wondering now where should I start?
Start this new life on my own
Turning my back from all I ever know
This is all so new
As I find myself coping with the loss of you

I grieve over the memories we had
The ones we made
the ones we will never have
From the very first to the very last
Something good that ended so bad
A sweet bliss gone so fast

Now I must start this life without you
Something that once seemed taboo
But in the end your loss
Was a good cause
Because now I must find myself
As I slowly put our memories on a shelf
Storing them away
As you slowly begin to fade
And now I know things will be okay
