No More Time To Give
You were my life, my whole life
My life is silent since you went away
I can no longer find the will to live,
Each day insists I find more time
And yet I’ve no more time to give.
***
At night I sit and stare up at the stars
As I’m not really sure what else to do,
I don’t seem to be able to care anymore
All I think about are my memories of you.
***
People tell me I need to get out more
And I find that I do totally agree,
Yet I ignore their constant begging
And take less notice of their pleas.
***
You were my life, my whole life
There was nothing more I need,
I was so very happy with you
And convinced that you agreed.
***
It was only you that held my love
I wanted no other, that was true,
But you’ve left my heart in tatters
And taken all my love with you.

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
