Do you remember me?

So much time has passed,

I don’t know if you still remember me?

I do see you in my dream daily

We talk and we laugh, life is beautiful;

And then I wake up, and you’re in a world so far away,

Why do you make those appearances if you don’t intend to stay?

They tell me to move on..

It’s been years you see..

But they don’t understand what it’s done to me..

The pain hasn’t lessened.

Your voice still echoes in my head.

I look at your photograph...

And I miss that smile, I miss that face..

It takes me back to where I started.

And it seems that things haven’t changed much.

Back then I stood in a room full of people,

All of whom I thought were family,

But all I could do was wail and moan.

For what I had lost, nothing could replace.

Today, I stand amidst a crowd of people,

In my heart, all of them have a special place,

Yet, all I feel is the same,

Helpless and stranded,

It is you that I lack.

No matter how much I laugh,

How much I pretend life’s a piece of cake,

How much I go out there,

The reality is,

Today, I live my darkest fear,

Loneliness, sheer.

I blame you for leaving me here,

Leaving me with nothing but memories,

And a dying hope that it will get better,

But I know better to not expect,

Cuz that leads to nothing but a dead end
