Life Without You

There's an empty space inside of me.
where you used to hold a space.
There's a frown replacing the smile,
that used to form upon my face.

You say your love for me hasn't died,
I assume it just faded away.
You don't want to see me,
because you feel  there's nothing left to say.

I never thought this time would come,
where you'd really say goodbye.
I never had a doubt
that a love like ours would survive.

You're in all my thoughts ,
and haunt all my dreams,
but yet I do not mind.
These memories are all that's left,
of a love so well defined.

I can't reach out and touch your hand,
the way I used to do.
You're no longer my friend that understands,
exactly what I'm going through.

With God, I'm kind-of angry,
this feeling I can't escape.
Because he brought you in my life,
to only take you away.

The hurtful words you've used with me,
I have always forgiven.
Don't you see you're the only person,
that has kept me living.

I'd rather die than lose you,
but the choice you've already made.
Somehow, it feels as if,
I'm dying anyway.

It's hard to talk,and impossible to laugh,
when I know you're nolonger in my life,
The memories I recall,
stab my heart with a knife.

I don't even wake in the morning,
to see the rising sun,
knowing you are happy,
you're life without me has just begun.
