You
Where were you when I needed you?
I was there when you needed me.
Where were you when my life went to hell?
I stood by your side when your father died.
I couldn't find you when I needed your love the most.
I knew from the beginning that you wouldn't be faithful;
I had hoped that I was wrong.
But you still walked away without looking back.
I still love you to today,
and I don't know why.
I still hope that maybe one day
you will have the nerve
to walk back into my life.
However, I know better now.
I will turn my back on you
like you did years earlier.
I hope that you have a nice life without me.
And good luck on what you are looking for.
