Somebody You Loved

Can I have you back in my life again? 

Everything was infinitely better when you were in it.
I always had someone I could trust and count on, even when you were just a friend.
Everything seems too difficult without you. Too lonely, too isolated, too individual and untrustworthy and rocky and unstable and unreliable. 

You used to fix all those things and help ground me and my logic.
You used to be able to help me tell the right from the wrong and make my issues seem so small in the grand scheme of things. 

I miss the days where I'd have panic attacks, or worry, and you'd stay on the phone with me, or I'd sit outside my bedroom sliding door, and you'd rub my back, hug me lightly and tell me everything was going to be okay. There was nothing to worry about. There's nothing wrong. 

You were there.
Now you're gone.
Where are you?
Come back, please...
Hurry.
