I Will Not Stop

It hurts to let go So I still hold you close I say I've moved on But I love the memories most When we were close I could honestly say I lived I started to feel whole again Anything you wanted, I'd give Now you want me to be strong I feel like giving up But you are all I want And I am not that tough I sit alone and wonder why I would give you my all All I wanted was you And now I am left to fall I lay awake at night I ignore the door and the phone Because without you I just want to be alone I don't know why I can't leave I never go out anymore I only do the necessities Work, school, and the store I am but an empty shell that walks I move around lifeless and glum I can act strong Only because I am numb I can go on and write for hours And I think that is what I will do Because it's the only thing I have left The only thing I have left of you
