No One

We met when we were tiny Our dads brought us together We were different as night and day You were shy I was bold and out going Yet we were drawn to each other We became more than best friends We were like sisters We grew up together Each bringing out the best In one another You were my voice of reason You always kept me grounded I brought you out of your shell I was your shoulder to cry on So why did you have to go Don’t you know? How much it hurt when you went I tried so hard to keep you safe From yourself that day And you did it anyway You took your life and left me With ~No One~ It broke my heart standing there As you left me A police officer holding on to me As I kept trying to run to you I never cried But I made a lot of noise Screaming at him to let me go I’m sure I even put a sailor to shame I still miss you my dear friend My sister I wish you were here To be a Shoulder to cry on I am afraid to ask anyone else Meaning I have ~No One~ Every once in while I feel your presence I feel like you are whispering to me Keep going keep moving on You even seemed to guide me To the person Who would remind me of You the most She is kind Understanding and caring Not shy like you Yet she is unique too She makes me feel safe Like you always did There are so many ways she Reminds me of you Yet she is different too Making her Who she is Best of all with her I feel like I have ~Someone~
