Whenever you meet someone special
You never want to let go.

You hang on for dear life
Hoping!
Praying!

That you won’t fall on your face.

But when you do,
Everything in life becomes worthless.

Food becomes tasteless,
Your thirst is never quenched,
And you drown your sorrow with liquor.

Hiding behind your smile you wondering
If what you did was too much
Or too few.

With each step you take
You think of the one you lost.

But no matter how strong you are
This feeling will beat you to
Your knees.

However the true test is
When you try to break this feeling.

Because it holds on for dear life.
Hoping!
Praying!

That you will fall on your face.
