I Can't Live Without You

My sincerest apologies go out

to the one who cradles my heart

in the depths of his loving soul

Darling, I must admit

I didn't know, that by you warming my heart

it'd leave me with cold feet

Wanting to run away from all insecurities

My fingers ride the waves of your tears

that pour out in fear

of everything we built coming crashing down

Worry no more, sweetheart

For love has made me realize

we must trust and hang on

inspite of lingering doubts

No soldier could surpass the way you saved me

or given me this life you've chosen for us

So I ask-

What's a damsels life

without her rescuer as her groom?

My being alive is by your doing

The very breath you breathe

is what keeps me going daily

The day your breaths become shorter

or your courageous heart stops beating

mine will vanish into thin air

I hope by then its not too late to say,

I can't live without you
