This was written a few months ago when I had made the decision to walk away from HIM. However, after much soul-searching, I have finally accepted his love, and now everything's working out just wonderfully :D

But reading this again today, I realised how much I actually love this man. I have never written poetry that didn't rhyme before. This is the very first time i just sat there and let my thoughts flow without rhyme or reason. Walking away from him was certainly much harder than I ever anticipated. I ended up walking one huge circle, right back to him.

How do I go on
*************
How do I go on without your smile
How do I go on without your kiss
How do I live with this pain in my soul
To remember you and all that you are
I close my eyes and there you are
Your smell, your touch, the softness of your skin
Your gentle lips, your taste, your warmth
Your body against mine, your arms around me
The tenderness in your eyes
The strength in your arms when you hold me close
The way you kiss
The way you laugh just before you bury your head
In the hollow of my neck
How do I go on without you?
How do I go on without your love?
How do I go on without you?
