I put you as my lock screen when you died,
I see you every time I press that button,
I never wanted you to leave my side.

Maybe that's why I don't answer the phone,
Maybe that's why I don't text them back.
It's definitely why I feel alone.

You're the reason that I don't have energy,
You're the reason I'm always sad,
You're the reason it's still affecting me.

I don't sleep during the night,
People notice the bags
But they don't see my baggage,
They don't see you behind my tired eyes.
But I see you in everything I do.
