How Do I Live

I live live on a empty heart

How Do I Live

How do I live without you near.

No one here I can hold dear.

No hugs no sweet talking tonight.

Your no where near that isn’t right.

I write your name like a child on my iPad,

I am always yours and you’re always my lad.

I know you won’t ever come back to me,

So how do I live if there’s no you and me.

The days drag on, the nights feel long,

I search for you, but you are gone.

The world still turns, but I stand still,

Loving you against you will.

I call your name into the air,

Hoping somehow you’ll be there.

But silence answers, cold and true,

A love once real, now lost with no you.

So tell me how do I move on ahead,

When all I’ve known is love you said

you’re not here, so what is left? for me

Just memories of how love used to me.

    How truly sad but one must learn to overcome and find a new one somehow. Good job.

    You or whoever will know when to move on but first admit why you are sad. Good job.
