Gone

If I could say just one last thing to you
I hope it would be enough
To say that I miss you and that I wish
You’d never had to leave

But I know you left for a reason
And you told me I had to stay
And I’m trying to be strong for you
But I can say that it’s not easy

Everything reminds me of you
The rain and flowers too
I miss the way you’d look at me
And just smile

I know everything has to keep going
But, God, I wish you were here
Because I don’t think I can do it alone
It’s too much without you

Sometimes I feel like if I just let go
I could be with you again
And feel the wind and the sun on my face
And not just be numb and cold

I’ll tell you the truth now:
Sometimes I hate you
I hate you for leaving me here
All alone with no one

But then I look at the picture you left me
And I see us smiling together
And I remember that it was what you wanted
And I can’t hate you anymore

But I want you to know wherever you are
Whatever you do
Through thick and thin
No matter what
Even if you’re wrong
Even if you can’t hear me…

You’ll always be my best friend
