If I Ever Had To Live Without You

Where would I be and what would I do,
Without you?
Would I be indepenent, live a full life,
Without you?

Would I have happy days, meeting friends,
for lunch, or dinner, and sometimes theatre?
Would I change my long hair
If you were not there?
Just WHAT would I do without you?

I´d be free as a bird to go where I want to,
Buy lots of new clothes, to go with new hairdo,
Is that what I really wuld do?
If I had to live without you.

OR  Would I return to the shy teenage girl,
You helped blossom out to a woman?
And quietly try to live through the day,
With nothing to say,
Without you.

Would I feel insecure without your strong arms,
Protecting me year after year?
With soothing reminders that ´´It´ll be alright´´
As you comfort me through all my fears.

What would I be like without you?

I think that my days would be dark as a pit,
For my reason to live would have vanished,
For so long you have been, the Rock of my Dreams,
I cannot imagine....................Without you.....

I cannot imagine one day would go by,
Without me hugging your spirit.
Pretending you´re here, as you´ve always been,
Hugging a ghost, a phantom, a dream..
Yes, That´s how I´d be without you.

I´d find it hard to let go, to put on a show,
Pretend to the world, I´m OK.
No, Love of my life, if I had to live
With only myself, and you´re gone.
There´d be no life for me, my eyes would not see,
For permanent tears, they would blind me.

It´s silly for me to dwell on such things,
You tell me the glass is ´´half full´´.,
And always will be ... If  I let it be,
My life could go on
Without you.

But barely a life, existence, more like,
My feelings reverting inside me.
For I´d find it so hard to be ´half of me´
Yet live like a person who is whole.

No, I think it would be a quiet world for me,
Alone with my thoughts and my memories,
If ever I have to live,
Without you.

  1. I love this beautiful tribute to the love in your life. I agree to be alone and without your twin in ones life is very sad indeed. I have been divorced going on now 13 yrs and have lived and shared with a woman friend now for six years. We are splitting and she is moving to another part of Canada and I am in search of a new abode. I enjoy actually living on my own, but alas I need the scent of a woman and friendship of one in my life. I am thankful for friendships. I pray you and your love will be together for many years and fill that glass together always. I am now following your blog and look forward to seeing more of your work here. I have placed quite a bit on mine, due to losing faith in the Hubs with all the stealing of work going on there. Hugs to you Dim and and my extended handshake to the beau in your life. Blessings and peace to you both from Vincent.
