My Teddy Bear

by livefreebright   Oct 21, 2004


I used to hug this bear at night
Pretending it was you
I squeezed it all night
And it helped me fall asleep
I could feel your presence here
But now I lay here desperate for sleep
Into the early morning
My mind starts to race
But it seems to never win
Your presence is still here
But it’s hard for me to bare
And out come in tears
Caressing my cheek
Spilling onto the bear
As I squeeze him tighter to my wounded body
Wishing you were here
Thinking of all the pain
And the love that I still have for you
Wanting it to go away
And when the tears are dried
When I finally fall alseep
All I have left is my bear
With the comfort that he brings
With me he’ll always stay
