"ONLY HALF ALIVE SINCE YOU LEFT ME" (15th in the series of my poesm)

"Only Half Alive Since You Left Me"

Since you left me lonely,

There’s no place for me to be.

Life without you by my side

Is a verse without a melody.

Since you left me by myself,

I’ve tried to drink away my troubles.

But all I see in my fancy glass is

Champagne without the bubbles.

Since you left me all alone

I just walk a lot at night.

Here, there, everywhere...

A moonbeam with no place to light.

Since you left me on my own,

It’s a doggone dirty shame.

Although I’ve tried, I can’t go on...

A fire without a flame.

I’m only half alive,

Living like I am...

I’m only half alive

Without you
