Lies a question, a mournful trance.
"What is life, what does it mean,
Without you by my side, unseen?"
Through valleys deep and mountains high,
I wander, with a mournful cry.
Each sunrise brings a renewed ache,
For your presence I yearn, awake.
The world unfolds in muted tones,
Without your laughter, your loving groans.
Colors fade, the world grows dim,
A tapestry without your joyful hymn.
Like a ship without a guiding star,
Adrift I am, lost and afar.
The compass of my heart's desire,
Points to you, my soul's supplier.
Oh, how I long to hear your voice,
To feel your touch, my spirits rejoice.
With every breath I take, I sigh,
For without you, life is but a lie.
Your absence casts an eternal haze,
A sorrow etched in endless days.
Like a melody without its song,
I drift along, feeling so wrong.
In darkness, I desperately grope,
To find the light, our shared hope.
Yet all I see are memories' gleams,
A life without you, like shattered dreams.
So, "What is life without you, my love?"
An empty shell, a teardrop dove.
A dirge that sings throughout the night,
A heart that yearns for your guiding light.
