Realization

If you were to suddenly disappear from my life
I wouldn't want to live with that feeling of emptiness within me,
and hopelessness would reside without stop

If I hadn't stopped to remember, I wouldn't have realized,
you are the reason I can laugh, smile, and cry
everything you are is embedded into my mind
and I can't help it...
I would have no one to come back crying to
the life I have left inside me, would start fading
there is no one else like you...

If I hadn't stopped to think, I would never have realized...
that you keep a part of me, and that part would die...
if you were gone.
