Gone.

She left me in the morning, just the other day. Now it's finally hit me; she really went away. Now I am a shell, lost in thoughts of past. It hurts, oh! Why did you leave so fast? Torn between two families, I tried to hold together. I'm lost, I think... Forever.

I wonder how I got here? Oh, yes, I came in all my fear. They tried to help, but I only hurt. I only sleep in your old T-shirt. Living through the loss of you, I push on. I promised you I would be strong, if there came a day that you were gone.

I will push on, just for you, through all the pain without the blade. I imagine your shadow, still next to me, and try not to be afraid. As I climb this mountain, I think of when I've failed you. Cousin, without me to tie you down, what will you now do?

Many people leave me, but you would keep me in  your arms. Now alone, I struggle to wake up, to even the loudest of alarms. I don't know what to do, for I've never felt so down. Nothing feels worth it, with out you in this town.
