(This is a rough copy of a poem I am yet to name)

My mind spins over and over again
To no avail I try to reason what I feel 
You have left your mark on me
Branding me like a brand-new stallion

Your memory is the light which guides me
Bringing hope to my soul, 
Which once I thought lost

Without touching me, 
You have left your print
Altering all my senses
Transforming my beliefs

Darkness and night you are
To attain you, I must face my fears
Yet without you I feel already lost
Like a sailor drowning in the cold dark sea

I have but one choice left
To guide my steps towards you
Until I reach your loving arms
For to live likes this is worse than death

It is emptiness...
It is oblivion...
It is denial... 
It is regret...

To be without you is to live in affliction
Haunted by what was and what could be
You are not just my muse
You are pure ecstasy

As I embark on this new journey 
Have pity on my soul!
For is taking all the strength found within
To swim against the dogmatic sea

Aspiring to be with you
To take refuge in your arms
As you hold me close and whisper...
"Let me take you to the stars!"
