If I Disappeared

Would you look for me if I disappeared?

What if one day
I didn't wake up in my bed
What if I was lost
Alone inside my head

What would you do
If I was nowhere to be seen
Where would you search
For a missing teen

Would you find me walking
In the cities bustling streets
Full of all kinds of music
That match how my heart beats

Would you find me wandering
In the depth of the woods
Picking flowers and pretty rocks
And all kinds of other goods

Would you find me standing
In a downpour of rain
Looking up at the clouds
Telling them my pain

What if you couldn't find me
No matter how hard you looked
What if I was hiding
Somewhere you'd overlooked

Would you find me sitting
At the bottom of the ocean
In the deepest darkest corner
Burying my emotion

Would you find me sleeping
At the top of the sky
Nestled in the clouds
To tired to even cry

Would you find me waiting
Floating somewhere in space
Leaping from star to star 
With everlasting grace

If I told you I was waiting for you
That I wanted you to find me
Would you search every star
Every minute you were free
To bring me back home
To the way things used to be

But what if I told you not to bother
Not to waste your time
That even if you searched for an eternity
Some things just arn't ment to be...


Would you still look for me if I disappeared?
