What am I without you
What am I without you
A shell of a former being
Not dead but then not quite alive
A horse without a rider
A car without an engine
A house without a roof
Walking about invisiable to myself
Those around me swirl in an opaque curtain
Knowing they are there unable to make out shape or form
I visualise you by feeling
By emotion
Picking out parts in an old time movie
Miming the dialouge
A line less actor
A dream thats lost in the space of time
Which has no concept in this void
That I call life
What am I without the warmth of your heart
Of the eyes that will never look upon me again
Of the smile that is cherished deep inside
I walk aimlessly in a blizzard of sadness
Where each snowflake falls hyperthermic
On a unfeeling soul
I fight hard to feel to see good
But the heart is frozen hard
I know what I am without you
I know what I am with you
