The Essence Of You...

THE ESSENCE OF YOU

Wherever will you be!
Darling!! Where are you?
For am drowning in my own tears
An ocean overflowing
Swimming against the tide forever I'll be
From this feeling of doom cannot extract from me
In the very depths of me
Wherever you are am with you
Never far away my mind my thoughts
The whole of you's imprinted within me
As if carved in stone deeply set memories of you
Drinking the essence of you
You're the very spring where I was born
The very first sip offered me
Like the nectar of the gods
Feelings erupting from me;
You showed me loving as it should be
Awakening from the very core of me
Feelings of exultation deeply set within me
The very first time am living as I should be
I can not have enough of you, & my eyes!  
Looking into your eyes I can scent the essence of you
When our minds touch, as if lightning struck me
As am holding on for dear life
Grasping at nothingness
Without a chance of anchoring me
But you have been away from me, control cannot
These feelings outpouring from me
Desolation wrote all over me
No light at the end of the tunnel for me
Why am weeping I know not
Circumstances extenuating cannot deal with
Why am I pouring my heart, my soul
But sorrow deeply set within me
Trying extracting this feeling attacking me
Have to wait I guess for the sunshine on me
Freeing me from the depths of this hell
Taking hold of me!!
