Without You

By Savannah

Acid rain keeps falling,
And these clouds are so damn dark.
My candle sheds no light here,
Without you in my heart.

This coffin that surrounds me,
Inside this empty tomb,
Is warmer than the rain outside.
Please end this suffering soon.

It's lonely here without you,
And I cannot stop the rain.
Just whisper that you love me,
So these clouds will part again.

Your kiss can bring the sun back,
And your voice can calm the sea.
Please stop this storm forever,
By just coming back to me.

The wind is getting stronger,
And the Reaper holds my soul.
I remain here in this coffin,
To take refuge from the cold.

It's lonely here without you.
Death has merely dulled the pain.
Just whisper that you love me,
So that I may live again.

    This reminds me of a song called Emily Not, Not Gone. Can love conquer death? Is there really such a love so strong? Dark and lovely poem.
