Gone

You use to be my world, everywhere I looked I saw you. Now that you've left what will I do?

How do I get up and remember to breathe.
How do I open my eyes and continue to see.

Before I had you, to guide me through life. To hold my hand and turn on the light.

But now that you've gone, the darkness has come. The lights have gone out and I've no one to love.

All day now. I sit alone. I look at the wall.
I think inhale and inhale.
I think exhale and exhale.

It's all I know now and all I can do. I think and I breathe and I stare at the wall. The wall where I see you, standing, smiling back at me.
