Me Without You

Maybe we shouldn't talk.
About love and the there-afters
After all, and sometimes the best
We can do is what we will have]
For supper, and who gets the first grabs
At the barbecue.

And maybe, we should simply be
Happy with a fondle or two,
And whatever we can think of
To inspire laughter, or to dream.

And maybe, we should have never
Tried to mix business with love

After all. We seem to get in trouble
When love and banking together
Take a fall. And maybe,

Any just for example if we could
Turn the clock back, a slight moment
Or two. We might remember
When I was young, and you
Were into the we, the you,
The love spoken,
How we decided,
How we longed
To be something new,
Just us, just somehow two

And maybe again,
We can look anew,
And maybe we can forget
The sad things,
The bad things,
The empty times
We tried to please
Me and You.

But, love simply came through,
Through all the sad times,
The crying and the saying "I guess, we're through."
I know I can't be the person I want to be
In this world, whatever I do.
Simply, knowing that wherever I go,
I will still be lacking you.

So, let's agree to disagree sometimes,
While we know that there is no other reason
Left, to say goodbye to what has been the reason
For regrets. I never can imagine life
Without you,
Without your soft tenderness,
Without you.
Without you.

Never, no never without me
And you.
