You are gone

The pound of my heart is mirrored by grief,
it hurts to think and breathe,
eye liner running down my face,
I can hear myself scream and cry,
why me? this is the million dollar question,
I think about you,
those stunning eyes,
shiny hair,
brilliant smile,
sweet soft lips,
that oh so great personality,
that laugh I can still hear,
all good looks and personality wasted away,
I will no longer look into those stunning eyes,
run my fingers through shiny hair,
smile back when I see that brilliant smile,
taste those sweet soft lips,
I can’t feel your arms wrapped around me tight,
or feel that feeling when you and I laugh together,
you left me hear to go to another place,
some place I can’t find you,
I think to myself why did you have to go,
as a ping of loneliness rings through my spirit,
another question runs through my mind,
why you?
then another,
why not me?
