Lost

Was yesterday that long ago I can't remember ever letting go These pictures of us portray broken hope Im stuck in the past with you Scared of moving on and having to cope You made it look easy When you just walked away Everything inside me begged you to stay After you had left me to be alone I would pretend to call you on the phone The person I was hoping would answer Is the one that I had never known
