Now That You Are Gone

I am alright my love
even now that you are gone
I keep on holdin’ on
holdin’ on and carry on.

I hold you in my heart
I breathe you in my soul
I feel you fill my belly
n’ sate my holy hole.

I’m alright my love
now that you are gone
I hold on deep inside
to calm my raging storm.

You make it sound so smooth – the “going on” part. But of course the “raging storm” that is happening underneath it all. Great poem!
