I wonder the empty hallways alone.
Falling down on the cold stone floor never felt so good.
I cry myself to sleep, waiting for a comfort that never came.
This is how I am now, everything you didn't want.
I'm a failure, a disappointment to everything you were.
And I know you told me better, stand for what you want.
Do better at school, help your sister.
And now, on the cold stone floor, I cry up to the sky.
Saying,"If you never left, I wouldn't be here right now!"
And I miss your smiling face all the time.
You don't know how much it killed me when you packed up and left.
The couches and tables, all replaced with stark, grey desks.
And now, that room has become everything you hated.
I loved you like a mother, you called us "your kids."
And you left us alone.
But, I'll never stop caring, not for a second.
Because if I didn't, what would that mean?
To you, it would mean giving up.
And you always told me, your favorite:
"Don't you ever give up."
But, now I'm here on the cold stone floor, waiting for a comfort that never came.

All curled up in the corner, I am a terrible mourner. Tears falling from my face, Still trying to find my own place. A part of me just died with you. And I know that you are crying to.
