Lost

I’m so afraid
I’m so ashamed
Sitting here
My back to the wall
Knees to my chest
Tears falling freely

I promised I’d be strong for you
I promised I’d keep my word
But I can’t
I can’t
I’m not strong enough without you here
I need you here

You are my support
You are my hope
You are the one who helps me through
But not this time
You’re not here
I’ve lost you

Why did you leave?
Why now? Why you?
Did it have to be you?
Was it luck or fate?
Love or hate?

I know you can hear me
I know you care
I know you’re the one I need to be here
To pick me up
To hold me there
To tell me you’re the one who cares.
