I Miss You

I miss you every day, no matter how I try I miss you in every way, you are the reason I still cry On nights like this, when the world is quiet And all I can hear is the thunder's boom I lie alone, upon my bed, in my dark and empty room And remember the times you held me near So close I could feel you breathe And all the times we talked until In my arms you fell asleep The safety I felt, the comfort of your presence Just knowing you were there And feeling your arms wrapped around me In the emptiness inside me, I still feel you here I miss you every day, no matter how I try I miss you in every way, you are the reason I still cry On days like this, when my world is cold And the silence is all around me I can remember how you made me feel And the glow of love still surrounds me All those times you smiled at me And made me smile back at you Remind me of those brighter days Before I was haunted by the truth Lost in my head, shielding my heart Unafraid to love, unafraid to trust Before my world shattered and fell apart I miss you every day, no matter how I try I miss you in every way, you are the reason I still cry
