WITHOUT YOU
Being without you is like a sinking ship
It’s like a shepherd who’s lost his sheep
It’s like a being that’s lost its heartbeat
Being without you is like a door without a key
It’s like a bed without a pillow
It’s like a song without a voice
Like a bird without a feather, I’m restricted.
Can’t move on without you
Like a face without a name, I don’t belong.
I’m lost without you
Like the blind walking without a guide, I’m blind to happiness.
It’s invisible without you
Like a potter without clay
Your hands and mine are needed to create perfection
Like a multitude with several languages
My heart yearns for you in multiple beats
Like slavery in past centuries, I’m ensnared without you.
Like eyes that have lost its sight
Like love without two hearts beating as one
All that is left is sadness within my heart
Hope without companion, and emptiness in my world.
Now I drink pain in every delight and poison in every wine
Indeed, being without you is bitter.
Being without you is simply being without!!
