You

The time between

My heartbeat

When life

Hangs in the balance

Hoping for the next

Breath

Of life.

The second I realized

There was nobody

Not a single soul

I wanted to love

But you.

The smile on my face

When I remember

Something you said

Or the way you make me feel

When it matters to you..

How I feel.

 

You

The reason I get up

Go on with a day

That matters not to me

When you aren’t around.
