What once was

The air that I breathe,

The voice that I crave,

The agony I feel when you go away,

You are my future,

You are my heart,

You fill my eyes with tears with just one look,

In a trance beyond passion,

Gasping for air,

So heartbroken because you no longer care,

How much more can a person bear?

Before the pain becomes numb,

As the world continues to spin,

The truth is known now without words shared,

And the lights seem dim without you here,

Nothing can compare to the love we shared,

You were my air,

You were my life,

You were my future,

You were my…wife.
