Hold on to things you cherish
For they quickly fade away...
I collapse onto the floor
Too weak to even stand...
My friend is still with me
She not once left my side...
If you've read my poem titled "I care"...
We are all lost in a sense of misdirection...
I'll try to make you understand
With these endless words I write...
I really ought to know by now
That all good things turn to bad...
I now need to forget you
Erase all thoughts of your name...
How can something so perfect
Hurt you to this extent...
Sitting by the phone
Waiting for you to call...
Each day gets harder
Without you in my life...
You tower up above them all
You never let me see you fall...
I could find a million words to say
But none would be quite right...
