_____by Najaah Childs

Everytime I close my eyes I can never have a vision without you there
The way you lick your lips....the color of your eyes....even the way you
style your hair
The life lived without you were the days I lived alone
No love, no soul, no beauty to make my house a home
I feel you when your miles away from me and when your here you live inside of my soul
Without you the flames of my heart simply spark....The warmth in my eyes is cold
Light of my future...I can't see myself without you
How did I ever live when you weren't around?
When I'm with you I ascend heavenly steps..Without you I descend sorrow
In Mary's words "I'm going down"
The life lived with you is so sweet and so deep....so love and so forever
The only day that I could ever leave you indefinitely is Oct. 29 ..The year
NEVER
There is no me without you and no us without each other
I hold you up and compare you to the stars and put you on the same pedistal
with my mother
Tears streak my face at the thought of you turning your back on me
I'm dangerously in love with you...My heart beats because you...It is you
that sets me free
The only time it hurts to think about you is when I think about the life.......
The life lived without you
