One week and three days ago
You were drinking
She was driving
You know the rest
One week and two days ago
You were still bleeding
Your heart stopped beating
They brought you back to me
One week and one day ago
Your lungs collapsed
You pulled through it
Strongest man I know
One week ago today
I saw your face covered in tubes
I held your hand pricked with needles
My tears dripped on your gown
You weren't awake to see a thing
But they said you were gonna make it
Three days ago
You seized until your heart stopped
Again
I pray to god you didn't feel it
I pray to god you were unconscious
I want you to know I spent the whole night screaming and I didn't sleep until the next
I want you to know you mean so much to me
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE ALWAYS ON MY MIND IN WHATEVER I DO WHEN I CRASHED MY CAR I WONDERED IF YOU WERE KEEPING ME SAFE I PASS BY ALL THE PLACES WE USED TO HANG OUT I FOUND PICTURES OF US AS KIDS I'M RIGHT HERE GIVE ME A SIGN THAT YOU'RE HERE AND YOU KNOW I'M TALKING TO YOU CHRIS YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO GO AND I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT EVERYBODY LOVES YOU AND you changed an entire ******* town and I'm so sorry you had to be the one

One week and three days ago you didn't cross my mind once
Now for one week and three days straight you've been incorporated into everything I think and say and do

I can't believe you're ******* gone

Are you here?
