Nobody knows
How I feel
If I'm happy
If I'm sad
If my smile
Is real
Nobody knows
About those
Sleepless nights
That I spend
Thinking of you
Nobody knows
About those
Fearful doubts
That eat me away
When you
Are not around
The two of you
Meant everything
To me
And you still do
And I know
That I also
Meant something
To you
But why is it that
You never answer
My call
You listen to me
I know you do
So why is it that
You never ask
If anything's wrong
Whenever you
Were home
You filled our house
With light
And life
But now it's just
A swirl
Of darkness
And fright
You know
Just what I need
You taught me
Everything I know
And so much more
You were
My all
My everything
You taught me
How to love
How to fight
How to raise my head
To take each blow
With pride and choose
the right path
In life
When my head
Was in the clouds
It took
The both of you
To bring me
Back down
Every time I think
Of the two
Of you
I take out
the little gift
You gave me
To remind me
of you
I turn it
To the back
To read the message
As I always do
'Only time
Will tell you
When it is
That I will next
See you.'
Only I
Can show you
How much
I look up to you
Only my heart
Can reveal to you
How much
I love you
Only by reading
Or hearing
These words
Will you know
Just how much
I miss you
