"Cant You See?"

It began with a hug

And ended with good bye

I opened up my heart

An finally let someone in

I thanked god so many times

Because finally i had a friend

A friend that was you

I use to tell god that

I would give up my life for you

But god saw it differently.

He saw it as you should be gone

And I was to stay.

No matter what was done

I had to lose you.

I cursed god for taking you

And I am still cursing him today.

I could never forgive him

For what he took away.

He made a side of me show

That had never been in the light.

I was as dark as the shadows in the night

I became the shadow, the night.

I was lost, I am lost.

I love you and I miss you

I bleed for you.

I have to, its the least i could do.

I hurt myself, because

Its the only pain I can control.

With you gone now, i have nothing

except for the piece you left with my niece

Your daughter, my niece, my world.

Shes all i have left of you.

And i cant let her go

I cant let you go

Please come back to me

I need you to be here

I still cant believe your gone.

Eight months later and i still cant

Let go of what was there.

I cant let go of you.

I need you, and i wont go on

With my life if you arent here

In it, come back.

Cant you see?

You have to come back

You have to be here.

You have to save me!
