Long gone

I need you, I always needed you. You were supposed to be here right now, you were supposed to hold me and help me fight through my nightmares. Instead all I get is silence and loneliness.

It took courage to ask for help, and when denied of it, everything inside me shattered. My tears choke me.

So go ahead and pretend nothing ever happened, I’ll do the same. But deep down inside I know it will never be the same again. The one I knew is gone, he’s long gone.
