A distance.
You are a part of me,
that was taken away.
Little did I know that with out you,
I fall apart completly.

I look at your face,
behind you an airport;
where you leave me,
for who knows how long.

And you never know how much I break,
and I don't want you to ever find out.
Though you often see glimpses of this-
calling you crying, desperate for
someone to hear me out.

Don't leave me again,
I can't take it anymore,
you mean more to me than
anyone else.
Don't forget that.

I will always need you,
and one day we will find a way
for you to stay.

But for now, you leave tomorrow.
But for now, I will keep breaking.
But for now, we will keep wishing.

And the next time I see you I will try
to fill you in on life here.
But I don't ever think you
will keep up.

So I will see you later,
whenever later may be.

You’ve changed.
Everything about you has changed.
You took your flowers and
Trees and ripped them from the ground,
And now I can’t recognize you.
Your past was mine and your present
Saw through to me.
But since you changed I feel blind.

Sometimes I feel you
Don’t want to come home again

We all miss you here
And you know it,
But that is the thing;
You don’t care what others think.

You told me that I'm not enough,
You left me fearful of myself-
embarrassed even...

And yet again I am wanting
the ground to swallow me whole.
At least I will be away from you,
which is for my own good even though
I want to be with you more than anything.

You sit on the couch and stare
at the black screen of the tv.
You can't fall apart now,
we need you more than you
could imagine, so it hurts when you hurt.

I can't take it just as much as you can't,
you were the one to raise me and I can
now walk in your shoes; so I, of anyone knows,
you need to take a step back.

Don't do this to yourself, don't do this to me.
Keep composure- i can't get my words out fast
enough for you to hear because if it lasts too long,
you won't listen.
