Trying not to cry

I look at you
I look in your eyes
I try so hard
not to cry

you have no idea how bad it feels
to wake up everyday
and discover that the pain is real
in every single way

I miss your arms around me
I miss your comforting words
I miss the way you loved me
things keep getting worse

I try to get along
I even try to smile
but evrything is wrong
this could take a while

so this is where I am
looking in your eyes
this is where I'll stay
trying not to cry
