"After you have gone" is a poem that is really feeling the pain from a break-up. It's simply like a sudden emptiness inside and a drowning world outside -- an emotion that one cant really avoid after losing a loved one.
After you have left,
After you have gone, gone,
My life’s melody has turned deft,
No music has been done, done.
My song ain’t finished,
Lyrics are not complete,
But how would it be accomplished?
Only your words are concrete.
It goes better with you,
Words of inspiration,
Expressive lines, tender and true,
Filling my heart with passion.
Always out of tune,
Can’t we try, one more time?
A chance in a springtime in June,
To bloom some flowers and rhyme.
My life’s been empty,
It has lost its meaning,
Tranquility has gone petty,
The harmony is missing.
After you have left,
After you have gone, gone,
My life’s melody has turned deft,
No music has been done, done.
If the notes were sad,
How could I get along?
It’s like an out-of-tune ballad,
‘Cause in my life, you’re the song.
