I wake up to an empty house,

With no one to share my morning coffee.

No laughs over breakfast,

No playful banter as we get ready for the day.

The silence is deafening,

And I miss the sound of their voice.

The day drags on, without their bright

smile to light up the room.

I go through the motions,

But something is missing.

It's only when I lay my head

down to sleep,

That I realize what I've

Without you my house is quiet,

My mornings are cold.

Without the warmth of your presence.

My coffee tastes bitter,

Without the sweet sound of your laughter.

The sun doesn't shine,

Without the sparkle in your eyes.

My world is gray, Without your color.

My heart is heavy,

Without your light.

I long for you,

Without you, life is incomplete.
