Yes, you're gone, but you're still here

Printer-friendly version

Yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here

Not far away in time

I was yours and you were mine

then you went and said goodbye

broke my heart and made me cry

but what makes it worse for me

is that I can’t seem to be free

yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here

You’re here in everything we shared

when together we were paired

you’re here in the gifts I still own

even though you’ve left me alone

I think of you every day

the pain just wont go away

Yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here

I shared so much of me with you

thought we’d be friends forever true

but now you’ve left me behind

except the memories in my mind

I can’t move on, I can’t let go

but you will never ever know

Yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here

Somehow I have to carry on

though it seems half of me is gone

even though I am distress

from this world there is no egress

I have responsibilities to uphold

though from my pain I’m not paroled

Yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here.

Your absence is true and real

but haunted is how I feel

Yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here

I say it again ...

Yes, you’re gone, but you’re still here.

Love Is A Gunman

That's as raw and painful as anything I've read.

I recognise the place this came from. My God, do I.

Ban nothing. Question everything.

I can relate to this.

In my case, he's still there, he has to be to do the man stuff around the house but he's always thinking of me and he's kind.
In turn I wash what few clothes he has left, essentially a pair of work jeans and a single denim shirt, oh, and I feed him but that's essentially it. He only comes around when he's needed and that's exactly how I like it; never uninvited and he always leaves when I ask. He's the best boyfriend a girl could have.
