Where were you?

I woke up all alone My throat so dry My eyes like weighted stone Heart so empty, I wanted to cry. Where were you? I needed a hand to hold Arms for comfort Anything to keep back that aching cold But I received nothing of the sort. Where were you? In that instant I saw to my final day Cold, barren landscape empty and unwhole So when I disappear and fade away It'll be your turn to ask when hollow in the soul: Where were you?
