Since You're Gone

My life is but an empty shell,
Since you are gone,
My former heaven turned to hell,
Staring at walls in my lonely room,
My world - a place of gloom,
Within my soul - a sense of doom,
My one and only consolation
Are sweet memories of you,
The rest is silent desperation,
Still do I hope and pray,
We'll meet again
Some lucky day,
Don't know where or when...
