Please, leave alone my broken soul,

Let my fractured spirit wander,

For my rest is in my sorrow.

I cannot dream to be complete,

Or feel my heart grow full,

With her absence in tomorrow.

My lifeblood freezes in my veins,

My lungs will not inflate,

This is time I only borrow.

To know she’s gone and shall remain,

It fills my chest with dread,

After her, I long to follow.

There is no joy or peace in this,

A life lived from her apart,

Leaves my own world feeling hollow.

Let love greet love in a far off place,

Allow me to take solace in this rejoining,

If I should fall asleep in death’s embrace,

Then I shall find her in the light of the morning
