I'm only here for my mother
her heart couldn't handle the pain.
I've tried to find other reasons to stay,
but it always ends up just the same.
I'm only here for my cat,
not that he'd be all alone.
He'd be looking for me behind every door,
wondering when I'm coming home.
I'm only here for my best friend.
I see my same sadness in her.
I couldn't bear to leave her like that,
to wish things could be as they were.
It's okay to live for others,
while we search for ourselves in it all.
And if we don't find what we need,
at least we had reasons to stall.
