I reread all the messages and the millions of texts.
Us arguing and playing like kids at recess.
The love and the joy, the love and the care.
But what do I do since you’re no longer here?
Man, now you are gone so my heart is gone too.
I don’t think I can make it in the world without you.
The smiles and the kisses, the hugs and the dates.
The little things you did that made my heart race.
The texts every night when I fell asleep on the phone.
Woke up to messages 10 pages long, man you’re gone.
What am I supposed to do without you here?
I guess I can blame it on forever for being so near.
