I don’t know how people live without love
I don’t know how they pretend
I’m walking down to the street
soaking in the rain
feeling something tumble down
I’m helpless
won’t let my heart know
you have left me
you have been walking away
so that was easy for you
so you thought without here it could be easy to live
so you think, you can live without me
so you you could ever forget me
If you think that so maybe you are right
but I didn’t want more than you were willing to give
I need nothing
I want nothing
just you and your love
my eyes are burning
heart is tumbling down
What I gave
and what I took
I saw, give and take and blame are all part of the flame
love should be away from it
it could burn for the one you want to be with
it takes far away
as it has taken you far away
I’m standing here with my complicated heart
In my empty world
with my empty hands
where your love gone
why love disappeared
Why heart crumble down
Why I’m alone!
tell me how to live?

    Ushna this is sad…..

    As much as love can give and embrace and absorb two spirits in mind and body….. it can also distance the reality of self worth and leave one so very isolated and lost.

    A good piece!

    Very poignant prose bridging separation of human souls. My wife Deb and I have been married 30+ years now; so I have not encountered that side – death will do that to us? I can tell you Philosopher Bertrand Russel is right tho! Marriage or a relationship is like two porcipines trying to live in the same tree hollow. Each person has to work hard not to puncture the other. It takes devotion and love!
    The Shoshone have a saying, “The Great Coyote takes a clod of Earth and breaks it in two and tosses it down the hill. Human soul spend half their life trying to find their other half and then excel! ” Maybe we should not look for relationships; until we find our selves and find what is missing in our self to find your complement?

    love and relationship takes time Dave! you are absolutely right Maybe we should not look for relationships; until we find our selves and find what is missing in our self to find your complement?
    thanks for reading my friend Dave! thanks for sharing nice brief thoughts! appreciate your precious comments!
