You walked into my life
Leaving traces of yourself
Making sure I would never forget you
                        
How could I?
You were my rock, my anchor.
You kept me sane

I never thought that I would have to learn
To deal with the rest of the world
Without you here

You weren't my lover
We each had our own happiness
But my dear friend

Why did they steal you away from me?

Who gave them right?
Who told them it was okay?
Who granted permission for them to take you from me?
                                  
Maybe I'm selfish
You belonged to not only me
But I can't help but think

Why did you nestle yourself in my soul?
Why does it hurt so much?
Why does it feel like I lost a huge part of myself?

I needed you
I still need you
                                    
But you're not here
To smile and laugh
To cure the boredom

Chase away my demons
With your kind words
My mental sanity

Don't be afraid
I could never forget you
Like you never forgot me
