I wish you didn't have to go.
You left so soon.
We had so much left to explore,
So much living left to do.
You were my best friend,
My partner in crime.
Life without you feels empty
And it hurts all the time.
I lay awake at night feeling so afraid,
Worried that its my fault
That you went away.
I brought you in to that life,
And then left while you stayed.
I went away to college
While you partied your days away.
I wish I could've been there
To have prevented the worst;
But now you are gone,
And this world feels cursed.

I wish you didn't have to go.
You left so soon.
We had so much left to explore,
So much living left to do.
You were my best friend,
My partner in crime.
Life without you feels empty
And it hurts all the time.
I lay awake at night feeling so afraid,
Worried that its my fault
That you went away.
I brought you in to that life,
And then left while you stayed.
I went away to college
While you partied your days away.
I wish I could've been there
To have prevented the worst;
But now you are gone,
And this world feels cursed.
