When my life froze




The sun rises and sets every day,
Yet I don’t feel the ushering of a new day.
The world moves past me in vigour,
Yet my breath is shallow, there is no change in me.

The numbers change in the calendar,
Yet there is no newness it brings for me.
The world is brimming with stories,
Yet I am deaf to the million dreams.

Your smile is the sun shine that breaks my dawn,
Your touch sets motion to my life.
Your voice gives life to new stories each day,
Your laughter resonating a million dreams.

Without you meanings are lost to me,
Without you the purpose I cannot see.
Just the sense of standing still,
Waiting for the day you will come and set me free.
