Why Did You Leave Me
Her laughter
Her smile
The way she spoke with passion when she was talking about something she loved
How she hugged you when you felt sorrowful
It would've never crossed your mind… and it never did
You wished she told you sooner… but you would've never believed her
But now that she is gone you start thinking.
Every tear
Every breakdown
Every night in her bedroom crying herself to sleep…
And you weren't there for her
After everything she has done for you what did you give back?
Nothing.
Its your job to keep these things from happening but you didn’t have the slightest clue.
She didn’t want you to know…
Her laughter made you feel comfortable
Her smile made you feel happy
The way she spoke made you feel like the only person in the world
And her genuine hugs made you feel confident
But now she's gone and you have no one left
Its graduation day ... exactly 2 years and 3 months from the day it happened
They are calling out names for people to come up
All i can think about is what they are going to say when your name comes up
F's,G's,H...
They called out your name acting as if you were still here
Did they forget?
Does no one care anymore?
Was I the only that still thinks about you everyday?
I was.
Everyone forgot.
No one cared.
I would've said something but I didn't have that confidence anymore
You were my rock
My best friend
My only friend
But you left me...
Why did you leave me?
