Do You Ever ?

Do you ever wake up crying
In the middle of the night ?
Do you ever lay there thinking
These things... they're just not right ?
Do you ever wish you could go back
And erase the damage done ?
Do you ever wish that I was there
So you didn't feel so alone ?
Do you ever think about me
So much it hurts inside ?
Do you ever wonder how I am
Or if I'm still alive ?
Do you ever feel like there's a void
An empty space within your Heart ?
Do you ever feel like I'm the one
You just can't live without ?
Do you ever feel so incomplete... so
Lonely and despaired ?
Do you ever feel so broken up that you
Almost feel impaired ?
These are things I think about... 
Questions I must ask.
How long will it take for you to realize
That my home... was NOT where my
Heart was at ?
