Having been a stray myself

I seem to attract them.

Sometimes quiet is violent
When the one who would fill it
Is no longer around
And you're left wondering
What to do now
But you know there isn't anything that you can do
Because now that he's gone
You can't really find it in you
To do much of anything
So you sit there and hope
That somebody notices
So that they can help fix
The silence that is hovering over you
Like death waiting to strike
Maybe somebody will be your light
Like he was
Before he left

I was wrong
about the crow
and crow
forgave, still

I roll down the window in the back seat.
The wind feels so cool on my skin.
I sing softly so no one else can hear me.
I try to hide the mood that I am in.

I stare blankly out the window from the back seat.
Scenery blurs as the tears fill my eyes.
I cry softly so no one else can hear me.
I hide my sadness and my laughter feels like lies.

The wind through the window in the back seat,
it helps me quickly dry my tears.
I whisper softly so no one else can hear me.
Give me strength Lord and always keep me near.

I roll up the window in the back seat.
We're home the day is finally done.
My sister whispers no one hears except me.
I missed him too, you weren't the only one.

Where did you go
Why won't you come back
It makes me sad
To think of all I lack
Perhaps it's silly
And you'll think me a fool
But I can't deny
That I'm still in love with you...

And after all this time
My shoulders feel heavy
My chests still feels cold
The warmth of your body
has been missing since...

And after all this time
I can't help but wonder
if you had a wish upon
a burnt out falling star
would you wish to
never have met me
or would you wish
that even though
our worlds were full
that we weren't
feeling so empty.

We're like two glasses of water
Each a droplet spilt upon one another
Unaware of whether we're
our world os half empty
or the world is just half full.

So I sit and hope for it to be over,
Praying that I'll remain sober;
As I overlook the sunrise
Watching it's slow demise
Atop a scenic mountainside.
I'd ask myself over and over, 'why-
You found love with someone else
Yet I found myself begging for help
Only to bear that I've fallen silent
of always being in complete reliant
On your shoulders when I needed to cry
And your warm words when I wanted to die'.

I cast my eyes on the sunset
Watching all that it begets,
Only to realise no matter how
That simple yet quotable vow
We promised to each other
Of being eternally written lovers,
Yet we disparagingly fall apart
Unable to mend pieces of hearts
Crushed by the torrential waters
Into minimal multiple quarters.

I wanted you so bad to turn back,
Yet you left without ever looking back
And I had hoped I didn't see you walk away;
For that moment is seared into my memory even today.
