Don't leave me

However will I manage without you
The implications threaten all my dreams
I can't imagine life without your
possibilities
My future is unraveling at the seams

You cannot know the measure of your life
Without an indicator to compare
You were my indicator, my compass
my own truth
Without you I am left with my despair

Don't leave me please
Don't go
I can't explain
The sense of helplessness your leaving brings
All conscious thoughts are melting into
puddles at my feet
I'm lost without the compass your truth brings

Please hold me to a truth
that's yours alone
I willingly surrender, no regrets
I shan't complain, I promise
I happily concede
Just love me, as I've loved you
since we met
