This And These

This pain that I feel daily, which inside of me it hides;

These arms that long to hold you, and pull you by my side!

This endless night I live in, since the one that I lost you;

These remnants of lost tomorrows; will let no sunlight through!

This lonely life without you; brings nothing but despair;

These days are now disastrous, since you’re no longer there!

This heart lays open, broken, with its passions pouring out;

These tears now fill each chamber, for the mate they’re now without!

This gift that God had sent me, so soon He had take back;

These photos that I have now; will not compensate his lack!

This loss that daily plagues me, I have trouble to accept;

These memories of our life shared, in my soul are sadly kept!

This man had hopes so rampant, that we’d never have to part;

These dreams have now been shattered, along with my sad heart!

This soul has lost its partner, and without you is misaligned;

These stars that now I gaze to, in hope, that you, I’ll find!
