I've died many times and I often ask myself why
Memories of you creep into my mind
Or have they lived there this whole time and made a home?
I hope I can say I loved and do love---you
And mean it fully
I would have had my heart stop if it would mean
Yours would go on
I'm sorry
I was afraid of honesty, while you were there
Leaving life in front of us
And I wish I could, for the life of me
Remember the last conversation you and I had
But you were just gone and I'm still here
Left wondering why and mourning the days
We never spent together and what will
Never take place; growing up, getting closer, and sweating through summer days
I wonder what you would be doing now
Heart beating, lungs breathing, and full of life
Would you be next to me would I be more of a different me? Because of you
