Nancy


 

Emptiness is all I feel, without you here.
I walk past your room, searching for you.
How can you be gone so soon?
A life taken before its time.
You're my sister though, why don't they understand.
You can't be really gone
And each night as I lay down to sleep all I can hear is you saying you love me.
It cuts me like a knife.
A deeper hole than I already have.
You're so damn young 
So why aren't you here?

you didn’t have to leave me.
