Daze like this

There are moments sublime

Full of heavevnly bliss

I realize you're gone

Then there's daze like this

Days never ending

Full of all the planning and the schemes

Passion never ending

Lovers  love unseen

Gentle warm laughter

Falls upon the floor

The fingertips complete power

To leave me wanting more

Youth in that feeling

When we knew that we were home

Wherever we stopped

Wherever we roamed

What I hold in the mirror

Gristled old and pissed

Smashing quick what looks back

Bloody          fist

Dead eyes with dead hatred

For that which I've become

Screaming at the ceiling

I cry out to no one

The hours move swiftly forward

Bitter laughs the clock

Alone in the cold kitchen

In circles I pace I walk

I've no resolution

To resolve all that I missed

No satisfaction to move forward

My vessel has foundered she lists

Not hungry I start eating

The crumbs you left on the floor

Just to be closer

To where you stood before

Your picture offers no reward

From the sound of your voice

Dead eyes I stare I take you in

I haven't any choice

So I sitting dead eyes staring

Breathing in and breathing out

I'd rather end here and now

Than live here more without

The midnight it approaches

I've no want cept for this

Never to have known you

And never daze like this

"Daze like this"...brilliant. I have been there, my friend. I always appreciate poetry that sings to our soul, that is so easy to relate to, that lets us look into someone else's mirror. Well done!

The way yo udescribe this really hits straight to the matter. It talks to the very part of me I hide
