Lost Without You

By: Melissa Susan Hensley

You have me cornered;
I can't get away.
With you on my mind,
I can't face the day.

You haunt me at night,
Your face in my dream.
You interrupt my mind,
But you aren't what you seem.

You've pushed me away
And won't tell me why.
You don't understand
That you're why I cry.

I cry for the old days,
When you loved me so.
You used to adore me.
Where did you go?

You were addicted;
I was your drug.
You couldn't get enough;
Now we don't even hug.

I'm lost without you;
I miss how we were.
Now I am addicted,
And you're the only cure.

Why are you distant?
You won't let me in.
I just can't let go,
You're locked deep within.

Open your soul;
Let me back in your heart.
I want our love to last,
But you must play a part.
