Life without you | spoken word

You’re coming through time,
Becoming, an image, a glimpse of something that should be mine,
You are emerging in roses and daisies,
And I feel like a king through these nights,
With a feeling nothing else can explain,
And nothing else can replace,
Through love and through dust, is the cold quiet dawn,
Almost like a whisper, pushing the sun,
Calling for the day,
And through my window blind, I see you, clear as brightness,
And yet....
There is the epiphany and emptiness, of seeing you only in thoughts, far away from my reality,
I see the void of a life without you.
And I see all that I would never see,
And all that will only be seen in memories
So i remain breathless,
My pen on paper, hands buried to wait till later,
Eyes pale from the pain,
Dead to move, too stiff to exist,
Too numb to love,
As there is no me in a life without you
While you come through ,
You might find the ticking clocks,
You might find the weariness of me waiting to start another brew,
Or the scent of the promise
That I will always bee the one to see you through,
As there is no me in a life without you,
And this is the truth.
And my curse
As I want for an eternity without you
Because I thought was the one all through and true

"There is the epiphany and emptiness" That was the line that really stood out to me. I loved the visuals and the way you performed it was on point as well. Well done
