I watch you sleeping
I am barely breathing
Reach out to you
I hesitate as you begin to fade from me
And it's ripping and tearing
and it's breaking my heart
Swallowed up in anguish
emotionally destroyed
Torn from you
slipping deeper into this black abyss
So inticing
this hell-this torture so hard to resist
Sometimes pain
mostly guilty pleasures
Keeping this body enslaved
aching for less
searching for more
Feeling numb
everything comes undone
Trembling
losing control
Nothing remains
is it true
am I lost to you
I close my eyes
fighting back angry tears
Open my eyes only to realise
you're not here anymore
Nothing remains
is it true
am I lost to you-nothing remains
Unable to defend
this madness is overwhelming
Whispered words spoke of forever
never again now whispers on the winds
As I turn from view
it has all become too much
all too much to bare
Feeling numb
everything comes undone
Trembling
losing control
Note you left
leaves me barely breathing
Reach out for you
you have faded silently away
And it's ripping and tearing
and it's breaking my heart
Swallowed up in anguish
emotionally destroyed
Nothing remains
is it true
am I lost to you
I close my eyes
fighting back angry tears
Open my eyes only to realise
you're not here anymore
Nothing remains
is it true
am I lost to you-nothing remains...

I would like to translate this poem
A couple of spellings, loosing should be 'losing' and 'As I turn from viwe' is that 'view' or 'you'. Other than that a huge outpouring of emotions, that anyone who has loved and lost will identify with. Very honest approach and I hope you feel better for writing it. It does get better, but not much and very slowly! Unless of course, you are lucky and love strikes away the pain, once again. They used to call her Lucky, but now they call her just 'Blue' Tai
