Faded

It's been too long since I've picked up my pen, And yes I still cry now and again, But the dreams that were so broken, Aren't so sad in the end. There have been nightmares that have faded, Of all the drama you masqueraded, All the words I've expressed, Seem so distant now and jaded. I can barely remember the sound of your voice, And you really left us all no choice, But to come up with excuses, When you didn't feel you had a voice. I still go to your site, I sit and I pray, Thinking of all those bean bags I made, You were so damn talented everywhere, I still wish you would've stayed. But here's the one thing that I have learned, You were hiding even when our backs were turned, And here I am living one more day, Wishing so hard your trust I hoped I had earned. People come and people go within a single glance, We would have all given you a second chance, Would've helped you back on your feet, Maybe encouraged you to take your life and enhance. Almost five years already this upcoming holiday, And yes, the pain does lessen every single day, Sure I miss you and see you in my dreams, I pray that never goes away, And in my dreams you'll always stay.
