Poem: Only With You

ONLY WITH YOU- RAEEZ JACOBS

Tears stain my creased pillow
as I curl;
ball myself
like a foetus
in the gloominess of
my room,

you are the
answer
to my impending doom,

take my hand
for it is stretched forth
as a lonely avenue
inside a vacant town,

awaiting the first sound
or movement,

Here I am-
heart and soul
mind and body
devoted to all you embody
loving you,

through every despair
and tribulation

through the
trials
of religion,
decision
constitution
and institution,

I am half,
and only with you
shall I live to be whole.
