I met a woman an eon ago who wove dreams with me
& with whom I made a lifetime plan
Calling it love will belittle it but what do you say when
Her image brings a smile, her voice carries my soul
It’s a void with her not around
Life is meaningless
I’m hanging in there, trying not to break
Let me face the challenge, see how much I can take
It was never easy to break me, but bruise you could
I’ll be lying if I say it’s the same this time, I feel abused
Life’s a cruel joke at which I’ll laugh one day
Right now, with my woman, in spirit, I stay
I’ll be relieved when she’s well again
Even when apart, she’ll remain mine
No prayer, no belief, no God, no hope
But her love helps me cope…
