I woke up this morning Only to be able to tell my friends that I’m okay I ate today Only to show everyone that I’m not trying to lose weight I did my homework this evening Only to show my parents that I’m fine I laughed at dinner Only to say that I can make it I tried to sleep But I couldn’t That’s the one thing that I couldn’t fake I don’t know how to fake it I can’t fake it Everytime I look at the couch I think “You should be here” Everytime I get in the car I almost start to cry Thinking how you died Today I found out about your death I didn’t cry Only because I didn’t want to show any weakness Today I went to your funeral I didn’t see you Or anyone that I knew I saw my mother Not for long though As I left the home, I caught a sight of you Saying, “You’ll be fine dear. Trust me.” Today I cried But only to show that to be strong You have to show your weakness

A Letter To The One Who Got Away
I woke up this morning Only to be able to tell my friends that I’m okay I ate today Only to show everyone that I’m not trying to lose weight I did my homework this evening Only to show my parents that I’m fine I laughed at dinner Only to say that I can make it I tried to sleep But I couldn’t That’s the one thing that I couldn’t fake I don’t know how to fake it I can’t fake it Everytime I look at the couch I think “You should be here” Everytime I get in the car I almost start to cry Thinking how you died Today I found out about your death I didn’t cry Only because I didn’t want to show any weakness Today I went to your funeral I didn’t see you Or anyone that I knew I saw my mother Not for long though As I left the home, I caught a sight of you Saying, “You’ll be fine dear. Trust me.” Today I cried But only to show that to be strong You have to show your weakness
