As i lay in bed
the tears i shed
people i love are moving away
how could things go so astray
soon there will be no one left
this is my fear
i try no to let it show
but how?
this pain this sorrow
makes me feel so hollow
why does he want to leave us?
it's not like we are old and have rust
he doesn't seem to care
not even for my mom anymore
does that make him a bear?
it isn't only him
sadly there is more
as i lay in bed
i think of this
while the tears roll down
i wipe them with a frown
i worry over the future
and what tomorrow might bring
it is scary not knowing
especially when you are growing
and my worry is mom
how can she take this
is beyond me
i fear she won't be around
to see me grow and have a family
more and more tears are falling
but the night is calling
as i fall into a deep slumber
where in my dreams anything is possible
but when i wake
yesterday lingers in my mind
what can i do?
but sit and wait
one thing is for sure
this pain this sorrow
that makes me feel so hollow
won't swallow me forever
