Overtime

It's been a long time since you have been gone
I didn't know how I thought I could go on.
When you left, things were not the same
Around here times would get real lame.
In junior high we never did get to date.
Which is something I have grown to hate.
I have missed you and thought about you over the years.
I look back on it and to this day I start to get tears.
I also never got to say goodbye.
Not only did I feel extremely down, I thought I was going to die.
We have grown apart in our own separate ways.
I am scared as to how I will spend the rest of my days.
Every time I see a smile on your face
I am taken to a special place.
I thought I would never see or hear from you anymore.
When you left, life had shut the door.
I will be gone for a short while and then come home.
When I do, I hope neither of us will be alone.
