Since You've Been Gone

Since you've been gone
All was left was shadows
I thought it was for the best
But I was shallow

I've always denied the truth
I still want you here
But it was our fate to be
Apart from each other

Now I've learnt
It wasn't for the best
Some things just won't last
The way you expect it to be

Now you know the truth,
I still want you here
I tried to replace you
But I know you can't be

Because you are one in a million
And I let you go
It was my mistake
To let the string break

I hope you hear me out someday
But it won't be the same
If I call you now,
What would you say?

I'll hear the end of the line
As silent as the night
The awkwardness between us
Will never fade

I hope that someday
You'll visit me
And at last,
We'll be living happily

It's for you
Who have left
Since you've been gone,
All leads back to me.

I'm so sorry for this! I know I'm not good at poems but I just tried my best.

It's actually dedicated to my best friend. Although it wasn't exactly like this, she still left because she had to and we weren't that close anymore since then.
