Without You

Living without the one who makes every day worth it.

Without you,
The sky is just a bit darker,
The birds sing quieter,
The roses smell less sweet.

Without you,
My eyes sparkle less,
My days go slower,
My smile shows itself sparingly.

Without you,
The world goes on,
My life continues,
But I am not whole.

I wait out this seperation,
Trying to smile through the tears,
Knowing it's all for the best,
Yet hating a life lived,
Without you.
