Sans Toi (Without You)

Here is a poem I wrote last year, early on. It's not about me. It's not about anyone I know. But it is about loss. Dependence. Friendship. Love. It's about so many things, I hope you will see. It's a heart breaker. A bit of a tribute. It's everything I never want to experience. I hope I will never feel the pain of losing the one person who means the world to me.

Sans Toi (Without You)

By: Me

I woke from my stupor

The light in my eyes.

It was you.

You called to me from above

And I followed with every fiber.

Every sunset.

Every blossom.

Every moment.

Every memory.

But none of this has happened yet.

And still I remember.

Your every movement,

The very scent of you.

Your every colour.

From the shade of pink in your lips

To those deep, amber eyes.

And that night.

I remember.

You were my light.

But that night...

I came up from the dark without you

And every day since has been in shadow.
